Maitiu Mág Tighearnán, the Belfast father praised for helping stop a brutal knife attack in north Belfast, has revealed what he witnessed on Kinnaird Avenue as a fundraiser launched in his honour continues to attract support.
The 32-year-old said that 'instinct took over' when he saw a man being repeatedly stabbed shortly after 10:30 p.m. on 8 June. Armed only with a hurley stick from his son's hurling practice, he joined other bystanders to intervene before police arrived.
