A dance teacher who almost died in the Southport attack has spoken for the first time of her desperate attempts to help children get to safety, despite having been stabbed five times herself.
In her first live interview, Ms Lucas said: “He opened the door and just grabbed a child, I didn’t know what he was doing.
Leanne Lucas told BBC Panorama how she called 999 as attacker Axel Rudakubana chased after them.
Ten people were injured and three children were killed in the attack last July.
