Huntingdon train stabbing accused shouted 'I am the baddest' on another train the day before, court hears

Huntingdon train stabbing accused shouted 'I am the baddest' on another train the day before, court hears

Anthony Williams, 33, of Peterborough, is on trial for 14 counts of attempted murder after a Halloween weekend rampage in which he stabbed 10 people on an LNER train stopped at Huntingdon and attacked others in Peterborough and on the DLR. Passengers on a separate service the night before texted British Transport Police reporting his erratic behaviour — but officers who attended Stevenage station lost him after he dropped onto the tracks.

Teen Isaiah Idris, returning from Thorpe Park, didn't realise he'd been slashed across the face until he 'saw blood dripping off my face'.

Williams admits 12 counts of wounding with intent but denies all 14 attempted murder charges.

Passenger Keirah Lee-Oakman said Williams walked the carriages shouting 'boom and power' and referencing the devil the night before the main attack.
