A counter-terrorism police chief has praised the bravery of those who intervened in a “terrifying” knife attack on a US spy, saying: “I believe they saved her life.”
Detective Chief Superintendent Olly Wright, who is head of Counter-Terrorism Policing South East, said they should be very proud of their response after Joshua Bowles launched his attack on the woman outside a leisure centre in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, on March 9.
