'I didn't think I was being a #hero, I just saw a man needed my help': Off-duty nurse tells of dramatic moment she saved stabbing victim's life - TheSun

A HEROIC off-duty nurse who saved the life of a man stabbed in the street and left to die said she was in "nurse mode" as she jumped out of a car and rushed to perform CPR.

Abigail Bamber was driving back from a day out shopping in the city centre with a friend when she saw Edmund Sinanaj stumbling across the road.

The staff nurse who was on a day off for her 26th birthday - which she celebrated two days earlier - got her friend to pull over and saw the man fall to the floor.

A video clip captured by an onlooker at the scene - that has since gone viral - shows Abigail on her knees giving CPR as the 41-year-old victim, who is covered in blood, gasps for breath.

Witnesses said the Mr Sinanaj died and was brought back to life as the mystery good Samaritan tended to him while waiting for an ambulance to arrive.

Heroic Abigail is thought to have treated the man for around five minutes before paramedics took over after being called to the scene at around 6.40pm on Monday.

Abigail, a nurse on a surgical ward at Bristol's Southmead Hospital, dismissed suggestions she was a hero and said she "just went into nurse mode".

Speaking from the ward where she works yesterday she said: "I was just driving down the road - my friend was driving - and we saw him stumbling across the road.

"Basically I noticed from a distance that he looked a bit distressed and as I got closer I could see that he was bleeding.

"I got my friend to pull over. I walked over to see if there was anything I could do.

"I noticed that obviously he was not in a very good way.

"By the time I got there he was already on the floor.

"It all went into a blur really."

A 32-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder following the incident in Easton, Bristol.

The victim was rushed in a life-threatening condition to Southmead Hospital in the city following what cops describe as an "altercation" and remains in a critical but stable condition.
