Attempted moped theft

[theantiqueman]

Just a heads up for people in the area, attempted moped theft. Two men armed with machete and knife attempted theft of moped on Crystal Palace road All in broad daylight. Victim threatened and ran at with zombie machete, Witnessed by a number of people, police in attendance. Be careful if you?re a bike owner. No one injured and police currently patrolling for the scum.

Attempted armed robbery. That's horrendous. I hope the victim isn't too traumatised.

My god it just gets worse. Which end of crystal palace rosd and when was this? Hope they're ok.

Is this the same one that ended up on Rodwell road? (I assume there were not two separate incidents but unfortunately I could be wrong). I saw the end of it and thankfully the man seemed ok - physically at least. Quite a few bystanders caught in on camera - if only that were enough to catch them. Also very concerning it happened close to local primary very near pick up time. Very frightening.

I saw this the this they attempted to steal a builders bike he came out of the house screaming and a hammer in his hand

They turned on him with a what looked like a machete and was screaming call the police, very upsetting these guys are so brazen in broad daylight and so near to Hebert school when the kids are coming out

That's really nasty - a machete means to be this crime should be given some priority.

Is there a discription of the perps so we can be wary of our surroundings
