Saved by four

FOUR YOUNG MEN are the island’s latest heroes and are being praised by two British visitors for saving their lifes.

While walking along the Richard Haynes Boardwalk in Hastings, Christ Church on Monday night, Jena Elhusainie and her daughter Dana Chowdhry, from Kensington, London, were attacked and robbed. But quick action by four restaurant workers saved the day.

“We were on our way to Champers Restaurant for mum’s birthday dinner and were told we could walk along the boardwalk. While walking I asked a man if we could get off the boardwalk and get back to the main road, when I heard a scream from mum. When I looked around I saw a man struggling with her.

“I ran back to my mum and attempted to fight him off. He grabbed my mum’s bag and stabbed her with a piece of wood in her neck. She fell to the floor and I am thinking I need to get this guy,” Chowdhry recalled.
