Overview
- Samir Zitouni, 48, an LNER customer host, was identified by the company and praised by police for actions that “undoubtedly saved many lives,” with his family calling him “always a hero.”
- British Transport Police said ten patients were taken by ambulance and one self-presented; six have been discharged, four remain stable in hospital, and Zitouni is critical but stable.
- Anthony Williams, 32, has been charged with multiple counts of attempted murder tied to the train attack and an earlier incident at Pontoon Dock DLR, and is due at Cambridge Crown Court on December 1.
- Cambridgeshire Police commissioned an internal review into knife reports in Peterborough before the train attack, and said an IOPC referral will not proceed to investigation.
- The driver diverted the train to Huntingdon where armed officers arrested a suspect within eight minutes of the first 999 call, as politicians urged formal honours for Zitouni and passenger Stephen Crean.
