It was a miracle that we survived, says victim of Hainault sword attack
Evening Standard
|May 09, 2024
A VICTIM of the sword attack in Hainault said today it was a "miracle" he and his family were not killed.
Henry De Los Rios Polania, 35, suffered serious hand injuries while fighting off the attacker who burst into his home brandishing a samurai sword on April 30. Four other people were injured during the attack, including Daniel Anjorin, 14, who died of his wounds.
Mr Los Rios Polania told the BBC that he had been asleep in his home with his wife and four-year-old daughter when the intruder broke in.
He said: "I thought I was going to die, even my wife and child. We thought we were going to die that morning. I believe a miracle happened in that room. My little one woke up and this guy got scared and he left."
