LynnMall attack: 19yo witness fears visiting supermarket now

From Morning Report, 8:38 am on 7 September 2021

A 19-year-old who fled the LynnMall stabbings and helped a wounded woman, says she felt shakey and mistrusting going to another supermarket a couple of days later.

Monica Seve and her boyfriend were shopping in Countdown on Friday afternoon, when the attacks happened.

She says they'd stayed in the car for ten minutes before going in - something she now considers very lucky.

Seve told reporter Katie Todd they had made it to the hot chicken stand when they heard screaming a few aisles away, and heard people yelling 'run, run, he's got a knife.'
