A Police Officer who was repeatedly stabbed during the London Bridge terror attack has been speaking about his ordeal for the first time. 38 year old pc Wayne Marques was one of the first on the scene of the attack more than three weeks ago. Hes been speaking to our Home Affairs Correspondent daniel sandford. Clear the area now it was just after ten on the 3rd ofjune when three men started their attack on London Bridge. Pc Wayne Marques of the British Transport Police had just come on shift and walked out into the scene of chaos. I am about to get my radio out and i hear a woman screaming, sort of behind me but from the right hand side and when i look i see a woman, a young white lady, and she has been attacked. Then he told me before he had collected his thoughts he saw a man knocked to the ground, a Knife Man Standing behind him. He was on the floor, pleadng for his life, and the first attacker, without any mercy stands over him and continues attacking him. I take my baton with my right hand like a racket, full extension, and i Take A Deep Breath and i charge him. I try to take the first one out in one go and i swing as hard as i can, everything behind it. I aimed straight at his head. While im fighting the first one, i get a massive whack to the right side of my head. I felt metal, i thought maybe it was a metal pole or bar at first. Afterwards i realised it was an knife. Pc marques was temporarily blinded in one eye. The first attacker was still on the floor, but soon the second attacker was joined by a third. Im fighting the two of them and while im fighting my left leg starts wobbling. Just waving, wobbling. And i am thinking, what the hells wrong with my leg . Whats wrong with my leg . And i look down and i see there is an knife in the side of my leg. He fought all three men off before collapsing and being taken to hospital, but he had bought crucial time, allowing people to escape, reducing the time the attackers had before they were shot by armed officers. Id just like to think that i did what i did to keep the people that i saw being attacked and being hurt, keep them alive, keep them out of danger as best as i could, and that is all i tried to do was just keeping them alive. Get them away from danger. In thailand, a dish popular amongst locals in the north east of the country is causing an aggressive form of liver cancer.
