“I, my friend, her partner and her daughter were walking on the water street and filled with jam. We were like sardine rising.
“We heard a beep and screams, and we looked up and there was a black carrier that drove straight to us. My friend, Francesca, jumped off the road to stop the young girl.
“It would have been about 30 mph, and when we passed by, we could see that all the windows were bumped by many people chasing the car.
“As we walked, there was a police riot van at the top of the road, and people were knocking on them to say that they needed something and needed help.
“The police and ambulances came from where the stewards protecting the police were coming.”
‘The car has soared through dozens and dozens of people’
Witness Harry Rashid says Sky News:
“We were walking on the water street with the family. I saw this car. It was a few people and stopped.
“We were shocked and had a lot of confusion and screams. People tried to skyrocket towards the car and smash the windows.
“At that stage, I thought it was a mistake, and I thought that people were attacking him and it would be very bad.
“He left his feet down and left dozens or dozens of resignations, just piercing the crowd and screaming and screaming.
“My children were with me and they started screaming, we were just in a state of confusion.
“I at first thought he had stopped in the crowd because he stopped. He speeded up, then put down his feet and hit a few people.
“Because there were many people around, there was anger, and they stood towards the car and tried to take them out or break the window.
“When he was in panic or deliberately left down, I just don’t know. I can’t guess it.
