Three Americans are being called heroes for intervening during a possible terrorist attack on board a high-speed Amsterdam-to-Paris train.
Three Americans, Anthony Sadler, Spencer Stone and Alek Skarlatos received the Legion of Honor — the highest recognition in France. British Passenger Chris Norman was also present at the award ceremony at the Élysée Palace.
A fourth man, Mark Moogalian, is hospitalized with a gunshot wound to the neck. He couldn’t make it to the Legion of Honor ceremony Monday when the four men were honored for subduing an armed terror suspect on a French train.
The 51-year-old French-American academic was in a hospital recovering from the gunshot wound when he was the first who tried to take away the suspect’s AK-47. The alleged gunman, identified as Moroccan national Ayoub El Khazzani, shot Moogalian in the neck with a Luger pistol that he was also carrying. Ayoub El Khazzani was also carrying extra ammo, AK-47 weapon cartridges, and a box cutter. Spencer Stone almost had his thumb cut off when Ayoub El Khazzani used the box cutter during the struggle with the other four men who arrived to help after Moogalian was shot.
