What a brave grandmother! And what a horrific situation for this poor woman and those people that witnessed this! Horrible!

The 20-year-old was shopping in the Somerfield branch of a seaside town when she was targeted by a crazed knifeman who repeatedly stabbed her in the neck and chest.

Grandmother Mrs Brown, 54, told how she stepped in and dragged the stricken woman to safety as security guards wrestled him to the ground. She said: 'She was screaming and he was screaming at her.

'The security guard then jumped on the guy and kept hold of him. Me and some of the other shoppers kept pressure on her wounds. She had wounds all over her body, several on her neck.
