A stranger jumped into a woman's car and stabbed a man in its back seat in what has been described as a "horror movie" attack.

The shock attack in Merseyside saw a man climb into the backseat of a woman's car as she drove her elderly mum on Park Road South in Merseyside, just moments after she offered save haven to a man she saw was being chased on the street.

The unnamed woman described seeing a young man in the middle of the road and stopping as she saw he was being chased by two others on a moped, before ushering him into the back of her car.

As she welcomed in the man, his attacker unexpectedly followed, and he started stabbing him in the leg.
