Last August their son, was aboard a high-speed train from Amsterdam to Paris with two American friends when he noticed a gunman carrying an AK-47. Together with Anthony Sadler and Alek Skarlatos, Stone tackled, the suspect identified as Ayoub El-Khazani to the ground after he opened fire on the train. Spencer was then stabbed and almost had his thumb sliced off, but was able to recover.
