Ben Clark, the father of three children, narrated how he calmed the'screaming' adolescent down outside his house in Emu Park, Queensland. Mr Clark said the teen had turned up to his house uninvited earlier in the day before being asked to leave. However, the teen reportedly stashed a knife in the vehicle of a family friend visiting the country for Christmas, without anyone knowing it. The teen returned and started screaming and yelling about what he was going to do as Mr Clark was finishing up at the end of the day. Mr Clark appears to have tried to restrain the teen, unaware he was armed, before crashing to his knees in surprise and saying, 'He just stabbed me.'
