Homeless Man Rescues Damsel In Distress

A young woman who was rescued by a homeless man after missing her last train home has said she will “never look down at homeless people again”.

Nicole Sedgebeer’s story has gone viral on Facebook and been picked up by several national newspapers.

Nicole, who was in London for a night out on Thursday, said she nearly burst into tears when she had nowhere to go after missing her train from Euston Station to Milton Keynes. The next train did not leave until the following morning and the station doors were locked, leaving her out in the cold on the street.

Nicole wrote on Facebook: “I hope this story makes people look twice when they see a homeless person.

Last night I missed my last train home and when I finally got to Euston to wait till the morning, the station was locked. Just as I was about to burst into drunken tears I met my homeless friend Mark. He said he would take me to a cafe that was open as it was too dangerous to walk by myself. He left me after a coffee and a chat and explained that he had to go get his sleeping bag but he would be back at 5 to walk me back to the station. (Me being a typical bitch didn’t believe he would come back).

It got past 5 and he was a no show. As I got round the corner my homeless friend Mark was running down the street towards me. Not only did he turn up but he had to get a bus to come get me. This man who I probably would of avoided eye contact with if he asked for spare change, completely changed such a negative event into the most eye-opening event in my life.

Mark you are one special man, I will never look down on a homeless person again <3

This was also his first ever selfie!”

When asked why she thinks Mark was so helpful, Nicole answered: ‘When I asked him why he did it he said it was a father’s duty to get another man’s daughter home safe,

Good man, Mark. Who said chivalry was dead!
