A man identified by BJJ Eastern Europe as Kev Taylor of Manchester, England, saved a woman from being stabbed, then pinned the attacker to the ground with a Carlson-Gracie-style knee on the face.
Taylor’s wife posted it about it on Facebook with the following statement:

Grapplearts’ founder Stephan Kesting responded in the comments section and was quick to point out the similarity between the knee on face in the picture and the one typically done by Master Carlson.
Knee on face! Must be a Carlson Gracie fighter
As of now, the Jiu-Jitsu Times has not confirmed that Mr. Taylor has studied Brazilian jiu-jitsu or any other martial art.
His calm demeanor would give it away as a student of the gentle art!
He’s from SBG Manchester! and is a blue belt, I believe.
