May 29, 2019. Martin Barrett speaks to media in Sydney after he intervened in a violent bashing of a pregnant woman on a Surry Hills street on Tuesday. Barrett says he was headed to work when the "shocking" attack began with a woman allegedly punching the pregnant victim several times in the head. "This person was defenceless and I just tried to help as any decent person would," Barrett says. He says he regrets hesitating for a moment before stepping-in and is glad to hear the unborn baby and mother are recovering well. NSW Police Superintendent Gavin Wood says the woman is recovering in hospital after the attack and recognises Barrett's effort. "He is a hero, I note that he is downplaying it but it shouldn't be downplayed. The people of NSW, Surry Hills, thank him," he says. Barrett responds, "I think they might be overdoing it; [I am] just a decent human, just trying to do a decent thing." (AAP VIDEO/Andrew Leeson)
