A few days ago a Nigerian migrant attacked policemen on the platform of a railway station in the town of Busto Arsizio in northern Italy. The “youth” was carrying a hammer and a large knife, yet somehow the Carabinieri managed to disarm him without anyone getting hurt.

The knife shown in this footage is kind of shaped like a dagger, but is much larger — 30 cm (12″). I don’t know what this type of knife is commonly called.
