Man who stopped Huntingdon train attacker speaks from hospital

Samir Zitouni, a 48-year-old rail worker for London North Eastern Railway, remains hospitalized after heroically intervening during a mass stabbing on a train, using a frying pan to deter the attacker. He has recently regained consciousness and communicated with his wife, with his condition now stable. The incident, which injured 11 people, led to the arrest of Anthony Williams, charged with multiple counts of attempted murder. Zitouni’s courageous actions have garnered community support, raising around £38,000 for his recovery.
