Passenger recalls 'panic and chaos' in train carriage as mass stabbing attack unfolded

A student has told Sky News how a man jumped out of his seat and others screamed "he's got a knife" during a mass stabbing attack on a busy London-bound train.

Amira Ostalski was heading to the capital for a night out with her friend - they were "listening to music, just having a good time", when "panic and chaos" broke out.

One person is fighting for the life after the attack, which police said was not terror-related.

A 32-year-old has been arrested and is being held in custody - a 35-year-old man has been released without charge.
