Taxi driver can still smell the burning from Women's Hospital bombing

A taxi driver can still smell the burning from a terror attack a year after his miracle escape.

David Perry, 46, suffers with PTSD after his Ford Focus Estate taxi was blown up by Emad al-Swealmeen outside Liverpool Women’s Hospital on Remembrance Sunday last year.

A year on from the bomb blast, David told the Mirror how he has flashbacks and is still finding bits of the bomb in his body. The 46-year-old said he also feared other terrorists would come looking for him in the weeks after the explosion. Even on the evening of the attack, he remembers staying up late with his wife to see his attacker’s face unveiled on the news.
