John Barrowman has opened up about being caught up in the horrifying car crash in Berlin where he saw 'bodies all over the place'
The former Dancing On Ice judge was just metres away from the carnage as he shared video form the scene in Rankestrasse in Charlottenburg.
On Wednesday, John his Twitter followers he heard a huge noise and saw a car careering down the road , running someone over before returning down the same road.
And during an appearance on GB News, the 55-year-old American actor told how he witnessed the attack on pedestrians in Berlin, which has left one person dead and at least 30 people injured.
John explained that he and his husband Scott spotted a body in the road on the way to change money at a bank.
“We came out of a shop which was directly across the street from where the incident happened," he told GB News.
“And we thought at first it was a traffic accident. We saw the car that had gone through the cafe area and then gone into the store front window. My husband Scott went over to the incident. I followed him over and we saw somebody on the ground being dragged away because the car door to the Renault Clio was open.
“So clearly the driver had been taken out. We then headed down to the bank where we were going to change the money and that's when we saw the dead body in the middle of the street. And we realised that something bigger is happening here.
“The people who were at the top, you know where the car went in the window, didn't know that the person was dead down there. That was when we saw other people on the ground.”
John said help arrived quickly to the scene.
"Within seconds those emergency service people appeared and started treating people," he told.
“I thought they were dead but they started treating them. One person was thrown onto a stretcher and other people were being given CPR and treated.
“It was carnage from what we saw, we kind of walked the path before they brought other emergency services in who then cordoned everybody off.”
He added: “I know they're trying to stay away from the word terrorists, but that person terrorised those people deliberately, deliberately targeted them. I know the investigation is being done, but we saw that we saw what that person did, and there's no way that was an accident.”
John shared videos of the 'carnage' to his Twitter page where he became increasingly emotional as he explained to his followers what had taken place before his eyes.
Growing emotional as he spoke with Scott by his side, John stated: "We're shocked. I've never seen a dead body just lying in the middle of the street.
"Whoever has caused this, a horrible, horrible person. These people were just having breakfast at a cafe. A vicious, vicious thing to do.
"Never in my life did I think I'd be in the middle of a terrorist attack".
Following the crash, a spokesperson for the German capital's fire service told Reuters around 30 people were injured.
"A man is believed to have driven into a group of people," they told.
"It is not yet known whether it was an accident or a deliberate act," police said, adding that he was being held at the scene."
The incident took place near the scene of a fatal attack in 2016 when Anis Amri hijacked a truck, killed the driver and then plowed it into a crowded western Berlin Christmas market, killing 11 more people and injuring dozens of others.
