The man who intervened to stop yesterday’s horror knife attack on three young children and their carer in Dublin has said he does not want to be hailed a hero. A five-year-old girl and a woman in her 30s who was looking after her remain in critical condition this morning after they were injured in the attack on Parnell Square yesterday. Two other children were also injured in the attack. Brazilian Deliveroo rider Caio Castro Menenzes Benicio told Newstalk that he just was passing through Parnell Square when he saw a man struggling with a woman. “Later I find out that the woman, she was the teacher of the school, and she was very, very brave I have to tell you,” he said. Caio said he saw the man grab a little girl and begin to attack her. “I just left my bike and took off my helmet to protect myself and to use it as a weapon and yeah, I hit him in the head,” he said. “I hit him in the head and he fell down on the ground.” A GoFundMe has been set up by Irish people titled: 'Buy Caio Benicio a pint': share-sheet&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter ________________________________________________________________________________________________ 📱 Have you downloaded the Newstalk app? - Find the app in the Google Play store: - Find the app via Apple: #️⃣ SUBSCRIBE to the Newstalk social channels: - YOUTUBE | @Newstalkfm - TWITTER | - INSTAGRAM | - FACEBOOK | - WEBSITE | 🎧 PODCAST - listen at your leisure: - iTunes: search for Newstalk in your app! - Spotify: search for Newstalk for our latest pods and news - Or wherever you get your podcasts! 📱GET IN TOUCH WITH NEWSTALK - WhatsApp: get in touch on 0871400106 #dublin #ireland #dublinattacks #caiobenicio #parnell
