It was a selfless act amidst all the chaos and fear on Monday night.

Pictured: The two homeless heroes who helped Manchester attack victims

Stephen Jones, a homeless man, was sleeping near the venue on Monday night when he heard a huge bang, which he initially thought was a firework.

The hero described how he pulled nails out of a little girl’s face shortly after the bomb went off which killed 22 people.

Speaking to ITV, he said: ‘It was a lot of children with blood all over them – crying and screaming. We were having to pull nails out of their arms and a couple out of this little girl’s face.’




Stephen’s heroic actions caught the attention of West Ham co-chairman David Sullivan and his son who set out to track down the 35-year-old so they could reward him for his bravery.
