A serviceman who narrowly escaped being abducted outside his RAF base has told how he fought for his life against two armed men who tried to kidnap him.

The RAF serviceman said he feared he would never see his wife and family again as the two men tried to drag him onto a vehicle after ambushing him close to RAF Marham in Norfolk last July.

Police have not ruled out the men, who were of Middle Eastern appearance, were a part of a larger terror cell hell-bent on kidnapping a member of the armed forces.
