THIS is the dramatic moment a suspected sword attacker is Tasered by cops who chased him through gardens after he allegedly killed a boy, 14.

The blade-wielding suspect climbed on people's roofs to evade capture before being volted to the ground and arrested 22 minutes after the first 999 (911) call.

Brave cops' confrontation with the suspect was caught on Ring Doorbell footage.

Taser worked well although it took 3 goes I think to apprehend this maniac?

He's lucky to be alive considering more London cops carry firearms than most UK police forces.

[Parley Baer]

I wonder if he is an Arab.

[NorthMountain]

Hmmm ... hard to say. Could very well be English. Definitely not Japanese, despite the katana ...

In the US when names aren’t given of arrestees in heinous crimes the suspect is usually black, sometimes Moslem. In England Moslem arrestees are not named so as to prevent the public from thinking that Moslems might be dangerous.

[Organic Panic]

It may sound strange but his gait is very “aggro” English soccer hooligan. And nearly all the imported Muslims wear skinny jeans.

[Bonemaker]

What pussies the Brit cops are! If they can’t use guns they could at least taser dart the SOB in the eyeball.

English soccer hooligan

That thought did pass fleetingly through my alleged mind ... He could be an Arab or Turk, but I'll go with "homegrown nutter" until shown otherwise.

[RandFan]

They wont say. The chief police man just said NO COMMENT about him and whether he was known to police

A bullet would have ended much quicker and cost a lot less. No trial no prison time.

“through my alleged mind...”

LOL! 👍👍

[Az Joe]

I saw no cops with guns at the scene, just tasers.

[technically right]

Around my neck of the woods I probably see at least 2-3 people open carrying in the local Kroger store every time I go in. Probably that many more being more discreet. That dude would have been taking a dirt nap before the cops could get out of the doughnut shop.

Demon possession

[Winniesboy]

It's standard British police practice not to name any arrested suspect for any crime until he's been formally charged and appeared in court. It's not a matter of choice related to the characteristics of a particular individual: it's universal.

[Winniesboy]

He’s now been named as Marcus Aurelio Arduini Monzo, a Spanish/Brazilian dual national.
Clearly hasn’t spent much time reading his eponym’s Meditations.

Thanks for the update

What’s he doing in the British Isles ... .

[NorthMountain]

A foreign nutcase, then, just not the usual foreign nutcase.
