"I saw the cop on the ground, and he ended up with the knife in him.
He was stabbed," Cesky said. The officer died instantly. The second
officer, a female, ran to the attacker and tried to subdue him with
her nightstick. As the larger assailant fought back, Cesky sprinted
forward and body-checked him to the pavement. "I went in and threw him
on the ground," Cesky said. "He got back up and had a plastic tube in
his hand, pointing it at her face. He stepped closer to me and it
looked like he wanted to commit suicide, he was jabbing the tube at
his own head."
?Officers later told Cesky that the tube was another homemade
explosive, and that it apparently had enough dynamite in it to
possibly level the train station. "When he punched himself with the
tube a second time, I jumped on him from behind again and threw him on
the ground," Cesky said. "I sat on him, held him down and I pushed the
tube away from his hands. The cop came over and we put the handcuffs
on him."
