The Canadian cop who was brutally run over and stabbed by a lone-wolf terrorist with an Islamic State group flag has been named as Constable Mike Chernyk.
Chernyk's shocking attack - which saw him flying through the air before being knifed as he lay prone on the ground - was captured on CCTV on Saturday night near near Commonwealth Stadium in Edmonton, Alberta, during a football game.
The suspect, who has now been identified as Somali refugee and previous extremist suspect Abdulahi Hasan Sharif, 30, then fled and obtained a U-Haul truck.
When he was stopped in that vehicle by police, Sharif sped off again and plowed into a crowd, injuring four, before he was arrested.
Miraculously, Chernyk, 48, has now been released from hospital - as have two of those struck by the truck.
