This is the incredible moment our officers tackled an e-bike rider as he raced away from them – before finding a loaded gun in his backpack.
Neighbourhood officers had spotted the masked rider acting suspiciously on the Soho Road and approached him.
He rode away, but officers from our Guardian taskforce – which is dedicated to tackling serious youth violence – were alerted and PC Matthew More tackled the rider, who fell to the ground and was detained.
