A taxi driver who survived a Liverpool terror attack is still haunted by the "clown-like" grin of the bomber's face before the blast.
David Perry has today told of the horrific ordeal he faced on the day of the terror attack outside Liverpool Women's Hospital on Remembrance Sunday last year. After picking up Emad Al-Swealmeen from his flat on Rutland Avenue, near Sefton Park, David recalls how he became increasingly nervous and suspicious about his passenger during the fateful journey to Liverpool Women’s hospital, the Mirror Online reports.
David, 46, said he felt an odd and “chilling silence” behind him as he tried to make small talk and asked the bomber if his wife had had a baby. Moments later, as he pulled up at the hospital entrance, Al-Swealmeen inexplicably triggered his homemade explosive that contained 1,000 ball bearings.
