Hero Guardsman took down Afghan terror attacker with pocket knife \u2014 how the ambush went down<\/a><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

The terror suspect\u00a0accused of shooting two National Guard<\/a>\u00a0troops just blocks from the White House was taken down with a simple pocket knife by a heroic guardsman who rushed to the scene, according to reports.<\/h2>\n

Suspect Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan evacuee, allegedly drove across the country from his US home in Bellingham, Washington \u2014 a nearly 3,000-mile, 40-hour haul \u2014 to arrive in D.C. by Wednesday afternoon, officials confirmed after the attack.<\/h2>\n

It remains unclear when Lakanwal left home \u2014 where he reportedly has a wife and five children \u2014 and when he arrived in the nation\u2019s capital.<\/h2>\n

However, he was laying in wait on a corner the Farragut West Metro entrance, just two blocks from the White House by about 2 p.m. \u2014 where two armed National Guard troops were standing patrol.<\/h2>\n
