Police have launched an investigation after a video surfaced allegedly showing far‑right activist Tommy Robinson walking near an unconscious man at St Pancras station in London. The incident took place yesterday evening (28 July). Emergency services responded swiftly, with paramedics providing on‑scene treatment before transporting the man to a major trauma centre with serious, though not life‑threatening, injuries.
In the video, Robinson can reportedly be heard saying:
“You saw him, he came at me bruv, you saw that, he came at me,”
while a bystander can be heard calling out:
“Can we get someone here, quick.”
Witnesses claimed paramedics used what appeared to be a blood transfusion bag and erected screens around the injured man.
According to eyewitness accounts, forensic teams later examined a blood‑stained handrail near one of the escalators, and around eight police vehicles were seen outside the station. The station remained open to the public while officers carried out their enquiries.
Unconfirmed reports suggest Robinson, whose legal name is Stephen Yaxley‑Lennon, left the country in the early hours following the incident. It is unclear at this stage whether he is considered a suspect or a witness.
Earlier that day, Robinson had been at the station distributing flyers for an upcoming protest, describing it as a “festival of fun” and urging members of the public to attend.
Robinson is a prominent figure in far‑right circles and has a history of public demonstrations and legal controversies. He is the former leader of the English Defence League (EDL), and has faced previous convictions for assault and contempt of court. His public appearances often attract significant attention and criticism.
At present, police have not confirmed any arrests. If Robinson is formally identified as involved, the investigation may lead to further action. Forensic evidence, medical reports and witness statements are likely to be central to the case as officers seek to determine exactly what occurred.
British Transport Police are continuing their investigation and have asked any witnesses or individuals with relevant information to come forward, quoting reference 655 of 28 July.
