Ricky Morgan has been convicted of attempted murder for the attack[/caption]
While prone on the ground being handcuffed, with the machete and another knife seized, Morgan shouted to officers, "It’s not a [expletive] terrorist attack, I had a beef with someone". He added: “It’s not a terrorist attack, I didn’t realise I [had] done it in a tunnel.”
Morgan was charged with attempted murder and two counts of possessing an offensive weapon in a public place and was convicted at the Old Bailey. He will be sentenced in the coming weeks.
Detective Sergeant Nick Thompson, of BTP, said Morgan's attack was "brutal and unprovoked".
"The two men had never spoken, never met, and had never crossed paths until that day," he said.
"Clearly, it was terrifying situation for the victim, he was able to escape but this attack and the injuries he suffered continues to have a substantial impact on his life."
