Sword-wielding man tasered by police after stabbing spree



Sword-wielding man tasered by police after stabbing spree

The moment a suspect was tasered and arrested after a 14-year-old boy was killed in a sword attack has been captured by a doorbell camera.

Footage shows a man in a yellow hoodie raising a sword while standing on a driveway before a police officer points a taser at him.

The man then collapses before he is detained and handcuffed by police.

Five people were injured in the “terrifying incident” after witnesses described seeing a man “running around with a samurai sword” who “stabbed people after crashing his van into a house”.

Speaking at a press conference in Hainault this afternoon, Assistant Commissioner Louisa Rolfe said a man, who had been arrested, was in hospital.

AC Rolfe said: “The 36-year-old man arrested at the scene is currently in hospital having suffered injuries when his van collided with a building.

“He has been arrested on suspicion of murder. At this time, given his injuries, we have been unable to interview him.”

  1. When will the government give us regular people the lawful right to use whatever force necessary to defend ourselves. We should not have to live in fear of being prosecuted for protecting ourselves.

  2. They're trying their best to distance this man from whiteness.. but I'm sorry, that is a white man. So where are all the "Usual suspects" comments??… Where are all the sarcastic "black lives matter" comments??… Awfully quiet now 🤔

  3. If i lived outside of America especially somewhere that they don't allow people to defend themselves id just risk it and get a gun anyway why take the chance. oh the Bobby's will be here any minute now to draw a line of chalk around my body…. Any minute now🙄
