UK Daily Mail The US servicemen who tackled a Kalashnikov-wielding terrorist to the ground in a packed Paris-bound train have described the moment they leaped into action.
Spencer Stone, a U.S. Air Force airman, was travelling with Oregon National Guard member Alek Skarlatos, 22, who was on leave after a tour of Afghanistan, and their Californian friend Anthony Sadler when he heard the gunman load his weapon in the toilet.
‘We heard a gunshot, and we heard glass breaking behind us, and saw a train employee sprint past us down the aisle,’ Sadler said from France. They then saw a gunman entering the train car with an automatic rifle.
‘As he was cocking it to shoot it, Alek just yells, “Spencer, go!” And Spencer runs down the aisle,’ Sadler continued. ‘Spencer makes first contact, he tackles the guy, Alek wrestles gun away from him, and the gunman pulls out a box cutter and slices Spencer a few times. And the three of us beat him until he was unconscious.’
As they beat the man – named in reports as Ayoub el-Qahzzani – he pleaded with them to return his AK-47, Sadler explained.
Hehe , that’s a fact : most muslims never had a well deserved good’ol beating 😀
Wanna have fun ? Caseneuve ( minister ) and hollande are still “walking on eggs” about if its a muzz inspired act , meanwhile , the guy says ” nooooo i had like 300 cartridges but i only wanted to ransom the train passengers LOLOLOL
Thank you to my fellow Americans and soldiers!! Always proud of our boys in uniform just a little more proud to be an Oregonian today. Way to show them what grows in oregon good job Alek.
A few good men in the right place at the right time who understand the true power in bold action !! . “RESPECT” Gentlemen !!!!
he was told by his handlers in syria that the french are an easy push over and that like the iraqis will run away big shock to find americans waiting to give him a dose of real courage what to expect if they ever face the marines
Vive Le France!!
Fuck islamic jihad!!
Normally it would be a good thing that the terrorist was captured alive since a live terrorist can provide useful intelligence, but what’s the chance that the French authorities are going to interrogate him “properly”? If all they have so far are stupid lies like “I just found this huge bag of weapons and ammo in a park totally at random and decided to commit an armed robbery” then they obviously aren’t doing it right.
Sounds like this guy needs to mysteriously disappear into an off-the-books interrogation in a random unknown location. He certainly knows some interesting things of a life-and-death severity.
The train employees that locked themselves in an office were, no doubt, the grand children of the French who didn’t defend Paris in WW II.
Idiot, they were from Holland.
Don’t call my readers idiots. It was French train, so you don’t know where the employees were from. Didn’t I ban you once already?
Well done the brave yanks and the brit that stopped the attack. The french workers….did you really expect any different?! Before democratic nations completely lose thier democracy under islamic immigrants lets hope they wake up. Proud to call the americans my brothers in arms (ex british forces)
How many more ‘brave’ islamist fighters do we have to stop before we realise islam and the west are like oil and water. The west cheeish freedom and democracy. Radical Islam cherishes a savage backwards hate filled lifestyle. Do we have to lose civilisation before we realise this. Kudos to the yanks and the brit who stopped what would have been a massacre. Ex british forces, my American brothers in arms i am proud of you and proud to call you friend.
MORE, a lot more. It’s like Churchill said, “Americans always do the right thing, after they’ve tried everything else.”
I saw an article about this situation on another news feed. NO WHERE did the article mention that the terrorist was a muzslime. It did focus on how the terrorist didn’t seem to be that “serious” of a threat because of the way he behaved when approached by and taken out by the American servicemen.
The muzslime kept whining and begging for his gun back. Actually, that is kind of typical for muzzies. They are so utterly shocked when anyone fights back and they are used to millions being dhimmis that allow themselves to be abused by islam…. I am sure they (muzzies) are utterly shocked when the infidels fight back.
WONDERFUL that these American GIs beat down this muzz excrement. I also remember a video clip from Russia where a group of Russian men attacked and went after a Muzz harassing non-Muslims on the street…. and the to see the shocked muzz run away. How shocked that garbage was that someone fought back.
Myanmar, Russia, China, Czech Republic, Poland, Bulgaria, Hungary, Centra; African Republic, Angola…. all of these nations might actually survive the coming war with muzz maggots- as they all take a hard stance against the most vile group of scum that has ever existed- muzslimes.
Now we just need the rest of the world to join with Myanmar and company.
Arjay, I can tell by the spike in traffic I always get whenever there is a terror attack, that people check here to confirm whether or not the terrorist was a muslim, because the MSM like to hide it.
In this day and age of war and mayhem it is unbelievable that there were NO armed undercover guards. The US and Britain rescue France again. Thank you. I hope these men are recognized and awarded for their bravery and the cowardly French fired. As we don’t know who exactly we have roaming the hallways and bedrooms of the White House anymore lets hope there are no PC repercussions.
American soldiers: Heroes.
Staff on the French train: Butt-saving Surrender Monkeys.
No doubt this evil subhuman savage will be accommodated in prison for the rest of his life at French taxpayers ‘expense, whilst making the usual demands for halal food , prayer mats, conjugal visits from goats etc.etc.
The guys who took him down were obviously young, fit and strong, and it’s a great pity that they didn’t ” accidentally” use some additional force in order to give him what he richly deserved. In the heat of the situation, how could they have possibly been blamed for this?
I’m glad the French actor spoke up about that.
This is really quite the buzz in France. The Americans are being hailed as heroes everywhere. Hollande congratulated Obama re ‘Exemplary Conduct’ on the part of these men. There will be an official reception on Monday at the Élysée Palace to honor them.
Stone is U.S. Air Force. He left hospital a few hours ago and was taken directly lo ‘Police Force Hotel’…
Another Franco-American that took part in the takedown was shot by the Muslim that got hold of his handgun and it’s truly a miracle he survived; the bullet entered through his dorsal lumbar area, passed through a lung to exit through a clavicle, in a zigzag motion; no surgery was required! Patients heading for surgery and all staff are stopping by his room praising him; non-stop praise all day.
Just a great story all-in-all and the best P.R. American soldiers could ever get. Never again will American service men get bad press in Europe. The French are realizing the extent of the slaughter that was prevented, it’s kicking in.
P.S.: The shooter had been to Syria, was allowed to return, was under surveillance by three countries, and still he managed to almost kill hundreds of people. This is just no joke anymore. There is no reason to accept these people back.
Susan, just posted another update.
Forgot to mention that all 550 passengers are in full shock. They all want to thank the Americans that saved their lives. Monday should be an interesting morning…
Susan, frankly I’m surprised. We are so used to getting condemned for everything Americans do, I was expecting the other shoe to drop any time. So glad to hear that.
yes indeed, that gun may have gone off in his face, who would have known?
Rifle for sale. Never fired dropped once.
SEE the POWER of the ‘inferior’ Infidels!
This guy was already under surveillance. He discharges the AK inside a passenger train and is loaded with knives.
The only thing this says is TERRORIST.
We all know where this is going. A piss take media fuelled trial where he will simply express his innocence throughout.
I can only imagine how many innocents would have been murdered had our Service Men not immediately stepped up to the plate, and “took care of business.” As opposed to scampering off with their tails between their legs, like the French.
“. . . Never been fired and only dropped once” indeed.
The muslim is lucky they didnt give him his gun back one bullet at a time, or the weapon butt first.
ohhh; mais oui…..eet appears the attackaire was seempatheteek to isis….. it appears the French say… what was this f$ck doing breathing free in Europe? Can you imagine if those guys hadn’t jumped him; what he would have done?
Ah,…
The best ‘terrorist’ is always in pain, bound, and beaten up!
Well done guys!
[snark]
And the French running away,….
Nah, never heard of that happening before,….
[/snark]
😉
Aussie.
As for Moroccan jihadist claiming it found the weapons in a Brussels Park bag: Do we have stoned FBI agents wandering around Belgium and France losing their weapons ? No, it was a routine weapons drop by Iranian friends of Kerry and Obama.
Do you know that the French Authorities
might just believe Ayoub’s lies? Thank you.
Thank you to Spencer & the Other Good Guys.
This is such a feel good story. Americans should be so proud of their servicemen. The guys will be interviewed tonight at 7 p.m. on French T.V. I am certain all the French will be watching the interview.
I would have called for river dancing on his head.
The story should have read :
“The men, along with fellow passenger British IT consultant Chris Norman, have since been commended for their bravery by President Barack Obama, speaking from under his desk in the Oval Orifice.”
Islamic Terrorism. Nah !!
just a robbery gone wrong.
dont anyone dare mention islam or terrorism……. keep everyone in the dark. !@!! lol. what a joke.. interview idiot obola and see if he can somehow wriggle the line in: Islam is the religion of peace !! im sure he’ll be able to do it.
Um, Americans do the dirty work once again while the French run away! So proud of our guys! The Euro trash can hurl their insults of Americans being “Ugly Americans” and make fun of Ametican tourists for ONLY being able to speak English but when it counts the Americans step up and face the danger and save hundreds of lives!
Your framing of his as us vs. them is the exact reason the things you complain about happen. You are sad and pathetic, and an opportunist. You can praise these guys for doing the right thing and saving lives, and you can criticize the staff for running away, but your jingoist crap is stupid and uncalled for.
“Jingoist crap”, huh? Perhaps you should read the report ONE MORE TIME before you criticize Mrs. P’s. comment. She’s spot on! ASSHOLE!!!
He found the weapon “by chance in a Brussels park”? I call BULLSHIT! He just wants to protect the muzzle bastards who provided the gun and ammo.
That’s the third time in the past century that American military personnel have saved France from itself! lol
Respect dear sirs ❤️?
This is just road rage on a train. Nothing to do with IslamoNazis!
Just ask Bigears or Billary.
As for the Moroccan jihadist claiming “it” found the weapons in a Brussels Park bag ? Do we have stoned FBI agents wandering around Belgium and France losing their weapons ? A routine weapons drop by Obama’s Iranian friends most likely.
That seems to be the new popular explanation for Muslim terrorists with guns.
