John Barrowman recalls witnessing Berlin car attack

TV star John Barrowman has told how he witnessed today’s attack on pedestrians in Berlin, which has left one person dead and at least 30 people injured.

He told GB News in an exclusive interview that he and his husband Scott spotted a body in the road on the way to change money at a bank.

He said: “We came out of a shop which was directly across the street from where the incident happened.

“And we thought at first it was a traffic accident. We saw the car that had gone through the cafe area and then gone into the store front window. My husband Scott went over to the incident. I followed him over and we saw somebody on the ground being dragged away because the car door to the Renault Clio was open.

“So clearly the driver had been taken out. We then headed down to the bank where we were going to change the money and that’s when we saw the dead body in the middle of the street. And we realised that something bigger is happening here.

“The people who were at the top, you know where the car went in the window, didn’t know that the person was dead down there…

“That was when we saw other people on the ground.”

He said help arrived quickly: “Within seconds those emergency service people appeared and started treating people.

“I thought they were dead but they started treating them. One person was thrown onto a stretcher and other people were being given CPR and treated.

“It was carnage from what we saw, we kind of walked the path before they brought other emergency services in who then cordoned everybody off.”

He added: “I know they’re trying to stay away from the word terrorists, but that person terrorised those people deliberately, deliberately targeted them. I know the investigation is being done, but we saw that we saw what that person did, and there’s no way that was an accident.”
