'I remember his eyes... they didn't look human': One year on from Southport attack

A girl who was stabbed in the Southport attack has told Sky News how she thought she was going to die that day.

It is exactly a year since Axel Rudakubana killed three girls and attempted to murder eight others at a Taylor Swift-themed summer holiday event in the seaside town.

The girl, who cannot be named for legal reasons, was stabbed in the back and the arm after going with her younger sister to the event.

She is now campaigning for children to have mandatory first aid training at school in response to the growth of knife crime.
