The attack that left a solider beheaded in London was a horrific scene to witness, but one individual was able to post the details of the attack in real time on his Twitter feed.
Boya Dee, a local London rapper, was in the exact area when the gruesome attack transpired and was able to offer a glimpse to the horrendous actions of the perpetrators.
"Ohhhhh myyyy God!!!! I just see a man with his head chopped off right in front of my eyes!" Dee posted.
The rapper then described the assailants' encounter with police, who arrived shortly after the attack took place.
"Oh my God!!!! The way Feds took them out!!! It was a female police officer she come out the whip and just started bussssin shots!!" he wrote.
"The first guy goes for the female fed with the machete and she not even ramping she took man out like robocop never seen nutn like it," Dee continued. "Then the next breda try buss off the rusty 45 and it just backfires and blows mans finger clean off... Feds didnt pet to just take him out!!"
CNN affiliate ITN aired a video showing a man with bloody hands and holding a meat cleaver shorlty after the alleged attack occurred. The man is seemingly calm as he explains the reasons behind this horrific crime.
"We swear by almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you," the alleged attacker says in the video.
"The only reasons we killed this man this is because Muslims are dying daily. This British soldier is an eye for an eye a tooth for tooth," the man, who is black and appeared to have a British accent, continued. "We apologize that women had to see this today but in our lands our women have to see the same. You people will never be safe. Remove your government. They don't care about you."
The soldier had apparently been on duty in central London and was returning to the Royal Artillery Barracks in Woolwich when he was attacked, Nick Raynsford, a Member of Parliament, told CNN.
