- Sunday 01/08/2021, 8:40pm/2040hrs, A215 near Herne Hill station: google.co.uk/maps/@51.4540246,-0.1006021,17.96z -

Two mopeds spotted in Herne Hill, both had no licence/registration plates and both had two people on each bike, with both people wearing black clothing, and a total of 3 out of 4 people wearing black bike helmets. Both mopeds were heading south when one moped cut into traffic (stopped at red traffic lights) onto the curb-side of the road and stopped next to a black (Matte-black wrapped) Mercedes G-Wagon. After a few-seconds long encounter, the Mercedes forces its way into the oncoming lane (a crash-like sound is heard) with the mopeds following in pursuit shortly after.

It could, potentially, have been a carjacking. However, the Mercedes' registration plate does not appear to be registered on the DVLA, and the driver was driving in the bus lane (undertaking) earlier up the road. However, there was a lack of sufficient evidence to suggest this was a stolen car, so it may not have been involved with any gang.
