Father protected family with his hand during sword assault.

In a shocking turn of events, new details have emerged about an alleged attack on a sleeping family by the man accused of murdering schoolboy Daniel Anjorin with a Samurai sword. The accused, 36-year-old Marcus Arduini Monzo, has been charged with murder, attempted murder, and other charges after a rampage in northeast London.

The attack, which occurred on Tuesday, has left the community reeling and seeking answers. According to witnesses, Monzo broke into the home of the de los Rios Polania family while they were asleep. Henry de los Rios Polania, a 35-year-old father, was with his wife and four-year-old daughter when Monzo allegedly stormed into their bedroom.

In a court hearing, it was revealed that Monzo was shouting about God and appeared to be in a state of distress. He then proceeded to attack Henry, who bravely shielded his family from the violent outburst. Henry's sister, Jessica, tearfully recounted the terrifying incident, stating that her brother sustained a deep wound to his hand while trying to protect his loved ones.

"He's our hero," she said. "He put himself in harm's way to save my niece and sister-in-law from this senseless act of violence."

Monzo is also accused of injuring another passer-by before targeting the de los Rios Polania family. The family, who are currently staying in a hospital, are too afraid to return to their home and are struggling to sleep after the traumatic experience.

Described as a dual Spanish-Brazilian national living in Newham, Monzo's social media feed shows him sparring in a boxing gym and describing himself as a mystic and musician. However, neighbors have described him as a "ghost" who lived alone and had no friends.

The alleged attack on Henry's family occurred just 15 minutes after Monzo's first victim. He is accused of running up behind 14-year-old Daniel Anjorin, slashing his neck, and then stabbing him in the chest as he lay on the ground. When police officers arrived at the scene to help Daniel, Monzo allegedly attacked them as well.

In the court hearing, it was revealed that Monzo attempted to murder one of the officers by knocking her to the ground and attacking her with his sword. He is also facing charges of aggravated burglary and possession of a bladed article.

As the investigation continues and the community mourns the loss of young Daniel, Henry's family is grateful to have him alive and are calling him a hero for his brave actions. Meanwhile, Monzo remains in custody as the case unfolds.
