One of those accounts details the actions of a doorman for the Wheatsheaf Pub, known simply as "Ozzie" who reportedly "led a brave charge" against the terrorists who were stabbing pub patrons.

According to The Sun report, Ozzie actually started to run from the three jihadists who had entered the pub and begun to stab a woman, but he quickly turned around when he felt the obligation to help.

Noting that the scene was a "completely chaotic, like a war zone," Ozzie later told a friend, "I realised I had to do something. If I hadn't turned back there were so many people caught up in the panic there would have been more hurt.

"Me and another guy started launching bar stools, bottles and glasses at them to try and disrupt them," he reportedly said.

The Sun report described Ozzie as a Pentecostal Christian.

To which the little boy replied, "My Dad's always a hero."
