A kitchen porter repeatedly tried to stab the Fishmongers’ Hall attacker with a large decorative spear in an attempt to stop his bloody rampage, an inquest jury has heard.
Lukasz Koczocik sprang into action when the alarm was raised at the prisoner rehabilitation event attended by convicted terrorist Usman Khan, who then fatally stabbed Cambridge graduates Jack Merritt, 25, and Saskia Jones, 23, and injured several others.
Mr Koczocik said he grabbed a maritime ornament known as a boarding pike from the wall of the Grade II-listed building as he and men clutching chairs, a fire extinguisher and a narwhal tusk tried to disarm Khan, who was brandishing knives and wearing a fake suicide belt, during the incident on November 29 2019.
