At Anthony Williams’s trial, jurors heard accounts of his reported behaviour on a train the night before the alleged attacks and of an alleged stabbing on a London train. Williams denies 14 counts of attempted murder; the trial continues.

  • A passenger told the court that a man on a train the night before the alleged attacks behaved erratically and said, “I am the baddest, no-one is as bad as me.”
  • Williams denies 14 counts of attempted murder relating to alleged attacks in Peterborough, London and on a London-bound train on 1 November.
  • Jurors heard that whether Williams carried out the attacks is not in question, but they must consider whether he intended to kill the alleged victims; the trial continues.
