Viorel Turturica, the 42-year-old taxi driver who captured video appearing to show one of the suspects being arrested, spoke to ITV News about what he witnessed.

“Armed police started running towards my car, so I looked to the right and saw the guy with the knife,” Turturica said.

“He was holding the knife straight and asking the police to kill him. He repeated three or four times ‘kill me, kill me, kill me’.

“The police used Tasers, put him down and arrested him.”
