Police are waiting to question the Hainault sword attack suspect who remains in hospital after crashing his van into a house
A 36-year-old man was tasered and arrested in Hainault on Tuesday morning, then taken to hospital, after sustaining injuries when his van hit a house.Four other people were injured in the attack – two Met officers who suffered wounds that require surgery, but are not life-threatening, and two members of the public whose injuries are also not thought to be life-threatening.
The words “suspect contained” are eventually heard as a female officer pulls the sword away from the attacker. "I thought he might have been lost or he might have crashed his car," she said, describing how his car was "smoking" after it had hit a nearby wall.
