(Picture: Google Maps)Two police officers are in hospital after being attacked during an arrest near millionaires row in North London.
The policeman and woman were responding to reports of a man indecently exposing himself on Deansway, East Finchley at 7pm on Friday.
The pair identified the suspect who fled down the leafy, residential road where homes fetch on average £2,100,000.
After what police described as a short foot chase they caught and tackled the suspect close to Bishop’s Avenue.
But a Met spokesman said during the arrest the officers suffered non life-threatening injuries.
Both were taken to hospital.
The man, who was also arrested on suspicion of two assaults on emergency workers, has been taken into custody.
