Hero Londoner who saved Tube shove victim from tracks: I acted on instinct
A hero Londoner has told of the moment he rescued a 91-year-old captain of industry who was shoved onto Tube tracks in a random attack.
Waiter Riyad El Hussani, 24, saved Sir Robert Malpas seconds before a train approached after the former Eurotunnel boss was shoved onto the tracks by a man with paranoid schizophrenia.
Paul Crossley, 46, was found guilty yesterday of attempted murder. Footage of the horrifying incident drew gasps from the public gallery as it was played in the Old Bailey yesterday for the first time.
Mr El Hussani rushed to the aid of Sir Robert, who suffered cuts and a fractured pelvis in the fall.
The video is shocking.
The suspect was a care in the community who should have been in a home somewhere.
