A man wielding a knife caused a disturbance at a Perth train station.

Police are currently on the lookout for a man who reportedly threatened multiple individuals with a knife at a train station in Perth this morning. According to a witness who spoke to 9News, some brave bystanders noticed the knife and helped others evacuate to safety at the Leederville station, which is located near the center of Perth. One person, Luke Fox, was present at the station around 7:30am and shared his account of the incident.

"We were all heading up the stairs at Leederville when suddenly someone shouted, 'There's a man with a knife!'" Fox recalled in an interview with 9News. "In a state of panic, everyone quickly turned around and started walking back down the stairs. A woman then urged us to go back downstairs and we could see a man at the top, shouting at people. I couldn't quite make out what he was holding."

Despite only lasting a few seconds, the situation was enough to strike fear in the hearts of those present. Another witness, Eli Morrison, who was also at the station, shared her experience. "There was a man at the top of the stairs yelling, so everyone froze and quickly ran back down," she said. "People were saying he had a knife."

Thankfully, no one was injured during the incident. The knifeman managed to flee the scene, prompting the police to issue an alert and advising anyone who sees him to not approach him. The police canine squad and fixed wing plane were also deployed to aid in the search for the suspect.

According to reports, the knifeman was last seen wearing a black tracksuit top and bottoms with white writing on the leg, white sneakers, and carrying an insulated shopping bag. In the meantime, authorities are urging the public to stay vigilant and to report any sightings of the suspect.
