Leicester Square horror was random attack on mum & daughter in front of crowds of terrified tourists
Thus is the moment the alleged knifeman who stabbed a girl of 11 and a woman was snared by cops in Leicester Square.
The man, seen cuffed behind his back, was first apprehended by security worker Abdullah before he was carted away by two police officers.
One witness told The Sun the suspect was seen lying in wait at the busy tourist hotspot hours before he struck this afternoon.
Dad-of-two Abu Tauhid, 35, said: “I saw him walking around the square this morning. He was on his own, just pacing around.
“I spotted him eating something like a wrap. He was looking out for someone.
“I saw police arrest him and then they took him away.

Thank you Muslim brother for your bravery ! You probably saved the poor girls and mother life by holding the man down ! Why does media not talk about the bravery of a MUSLIM man?! Masha Allah May Allah reward you brother !
United Kingdom of stabbers)
United States of mass shooting )
Does anyone actually read? His name is Ioan Pintaru. Look up almost any of the articles on the attack, he’s been named. He’s Romanian. Another immigrant killer
This is mental. I dont know how the nation will react to this. On the one hand the guy was a dodgy imigrant, on the other, he was stopped by a man of middle eastern descent, a muslim man no less.
This can only heighten tensions :/
The usual suspects. Deport them
What sort of human garbage, would attack a mother and young daughter?!
This is a WAR against women and children.
Is he femal coviring face when he kild kids and he is 30+ shame on media
Oh look a Romanian not a gypsy is it Romanians? Which you clowns are quick to say!!!!
Statistically what are the chances of this evil man being a foreigner let alone a Romanian, this type of attack is very rare (well it used to be) most people living in this country are meant to be British (not including British Chinese or British Pakistani) and Romanian men make up a very tiny percent of our population, so the chances of this rare crime being committed by one of them should statistically be almost impossible, so what happened?
The good and evil in a population is not the same as the good and evil within people that emigrate, people emigrate for all sorts of reasons, some good and some bad.
Gypsy from Romania. Nice.
What a surprise ,he’s Romanian , our government wanted this rubbish in the Uk. Makes me sick
Please don't tell me anyone is surprised.
Were is the mom and daughters…foorage seems odd i haven't see any
Im astounded none of you individuals who are making the focus of this incident as the so called brave muslim… i dont need to know his religious beliefs to learn of his actions or what he may have faced in that moment of peril. I want to point out to you all, gushing with awe and respect towards him is exactlt what your all being steered towards making important here, rather than realising the rodent that carried out this awful act is exactly what we dont want swanning into our one proud country. The media want you to ignore who was the victim, who did it and where he appeared from, instead we get told to concentrate on the race of the person who as any one would ever intervened.
Shamful on many levels, wake up for your own sake people you are going along with the agenda
🤔
What is happening in UK!!!! Why are these maniacs targeting small children….
Thank you to the MUSLIM called Abdellah for saving the life of a girl and woman.
All media was there for the ‘’far right movement’’ but nobody when innocent is killed
Shame on european media
a white guy from a Christian country. Not surprising
Spineless, weak Government have ruined this country……
To the governemnt – All animals are equal, but some are more equal than others
What a complete coward attacking a child
Abdullah hero
