Incredibly, seconds later the 'heroic' taxi driver emerges from the vehicle and runs to safety, before the cab bursts into a ball of flames.
Mr Perry is said to have locked the bomber inside the car after becoming suspicious of their movements.Merseyside Police has since confirmed one man died and another person, who is assumed to be Mr Perry, suffered serious but not life-threatening injuries.
Three men, aged 29, 26 and 21, were arrested under the Terrorism Act in the Kensington area on Sunday evening in connection with the probe into the explosion.
