A convicted killer who helped subdue a terrorist who stabbed two people to death during a terrifying rampage has been awarded The Queen’s Gallantry Medal.
John Crilly is one of four men to be handed the prestigious award for their bravery in helping to stop London Bridge terrorist Usman Khan.
Khan, a convicted terrorist, had attended a prisoner rehabilitation event at Fishmongers’ Hall in the capital in 2019. Crilly was also attending the event and courageously helped to stop Khan, who was wearing a realistic looking suicide belt and had two knives strapped to his hands.
