A man accused of trying to murder a postman by pushing him in front of a train at Oxford Circus tube station said he carried out the attack because of a “dirty look”, a court has heard. Brwa Shorsh, 24, shoved Tadeusz Potoczek without warning from the platform just a few seconds before a Victoria Line train was due to arrive.
Mr Potoczek, who was on his commute home, was pulled to safety by a man on the platform, while the quick-thinking train driver slammed on the brakes with seconds to spare to avert disaster, Inner London crown court heard.
