Story
An off-duty policeman - an amateur rugby player - was stabbed after tackling one of the three attackers. He remains in critical condition.
Met Police commissioner Cressida Dick praised the "utterly heroic" actions of the officer, who was taken to hospital in a police car.
She said: "It's hard to pick out individual stories but I am immensely proud of him and what he did."
To show our appreciation for the brave rugby-playing policeman who's selfless act defending the public in the London Bridge terror attack saved countless lives, RUCK has teamed up with Rugby Pass and Rugby Union Reddit to raise money for him and his family during his recovery.
100% of the money raised will go to him in some capacity!
We will keep everyone updated on what happens at our website RUCK.co.uk and on our Facebook page @ruckrugby.

The officer suffered injuries to his face, leg and hands as he tried to take on the knife-wielding extremists as they went on a crazed rampage along London Bridge and Borough Market on Saturday evening. His Chief Constable has since praised the 'outstanding bravery' of the officer who is understood to be on probation hav
