A knifeman reportedly shouted ‘I want to kill a Muslim’ before stabbing a fellow passenger on a train, it was claimed today.

Terrified passengers fled as the attacker ‘screamed’ at other travellers asking them if they were Muslim before knifing his victim.

He then reportedly chased onlookers around Forest Hill station, south east London, before fleeing the scene, but was caught by police soon after.

Eyewitness Kastrati Met said: “The attacker all of suddenly started shouting ‘who is Muslim, I want to kill a Muslim’ and just went to a guy sitting with his wife and started stabbing him.

“He walked from the carriages to the last carriage shouting.

“I think he returned once as a lady has seen him taking a knife from his bag

“He came from the other carriages, we were on the first carriage.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
