Some reports of his encounter with King Richard II report that Wat Tyler was unarmed, and It is doubtful that Wat Tyler stabbed anyone. Other stories say he was insulted by Sir John Newton, a servant of the King, and attempted to stab Newton in retaliation for the insult, but was restrained and arrested by the Lord Mayor of London. He then may have unsuccessfully tried to stab the Lord Mayor, but was stabbed in return by the Lord Mayor and another of the King's servants. No verifiable account is known to exist.
