Whilst pursuing Boulton, PC Denniss rang through to a colleague to ask for firearms officers to come to the park in an attempt to stop him from escaping.He added: "At one point, a member of the public tried to approach him, but when they realised he had a knife they backed off.

He then started coming towards me, trying to get my phone off me."In the struggle that followed, Boulton stabbed PC Denniss in the leg before running off again.Following him across rivers and bridges, PC Denniss found him trying to steal a woman's car before he ran off once more.Steve remained in the park to ensure the safety of the public and only a short time later, Boulton was apprehended.

Speaking about why he acted so bravely, he said: "It's all about the victims."That's why we do what we do, to stop anything like this from happening again.
