Dramatic bodycam shows moment police taser Golders Green terror attack suspect

Dramatic bodycam footage shows the moment two Metropolitan Police officers tackled a man suspected of carrying out a terrorist attack in north London where two men were stabbed on Wednesday (29 April).

The two victims, who have been named as Nachman Moshe ben Chaya Sarah and Moshe Ben Baila, were taken to hospital with knife wounds following the incident on Highfield Avenue.

Police said a 45-year-old man, who is a British national, born in Somalia, was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and remains in police custody.

“The suspect refused to show his hands, was violent, and continued to pose a clear threat. Using only their training, courage and tasers, they detained him while he continued to try to attack and stab them,” the Met said.
