A teenage girl who bravely led a group to safety during the Southport attack, despite her own serious injuries, has spoken out against the spread of “false information” on social media surrounding the tragic event.
In an interview with the BBC’s Panorama programme, the 14-year-old, identified only as “Sarah” due to a court order protecting her identity, explained her decision to share her story, saying she wanted to ensure “the truth [was] out there.” The programme, which delves into the attack, highlights Sarah’s courage and resilience amidst the chaos.
