Patient Awarded George Medal for Preventing Leeds Hospital Bombing
Nathan Newby prevented a mass-casualty bombing at Leeds hospital by calmly talking down a lone-wolf terrorist with a homemade bomb, saving many lives, police said.
- Mohammad Farooq, looking agitated outside St James's Hospital in Leeds on 20 January 2023, wanted to 'kill as many nurses as possible' to get back at colleagues.
- Nathan Newby spotted Farooq and, by calmly talking to him and hugging him, prevented Farooq from carrying out the planned attack.
- Newby's 'humanity and bravery that night almost certainly saved lives', and the judge described his actions as 'amongst the most remarkable the court has ever heard'.
