A bus depot manager has been praised after saving a man from a knife attack. Zachary McAskill was working as an operations manager at Stagecoach's Hyde Road depot in Ardwick when an incident began to unfold outside on November 11 last year.
Five men are said to started attacking another man, with one seen to be carrying a knife. Zachary stepped in and was able to calm the situation down.
This meant that the man being attacked was able to board a bus and get to safety. The incident was not reported to the police due to a lack of CCTV of the incident, Stagecoach say, but he has still been recognised for his bravery by the company.
