A car drove into a group of men outside Regent’s Park mosque as they appeared to be locked in a knife fight.
Shocking footage shows several men brawling in broad daylight, with some wielding weapons, before a car ploughed into the crowd on Saturday afternoon.
The video also shows traffic brought to a standstill, with the fight spilling into the road and blocking two lanes of buses in the busy central London area.

Onlookers watched the incident unfold while the men lunged at one another, threw punches and wielded what appear to be knives.
Suddenly, a black car drives through the lanes of traffic, striking the group, and shouts from onlookers can be heard.
At one point, a bystander appears to get involved, seeming to urge the group to stop, whilst one man is pinned to the ground, waving a knife around.
The footage, which was posted to X, drew comments commending the man for his bravery getting involved.
One commenter says: “Brave man at the end there at least attempting to intervene and call help, which of course is dangerous given their proximity and weapons.
This comes days after another video, showing a knife fight in broad daylight in Brixton, south London circulated X.
