[FOX] London police say their tough tactic of ramming violent "thieves" off their moped as they flee has helped bring down crime in the city.
Scotland Yard released a video Friday showing a team of specially trained drivers knocking suspects off their mopeds and motorcycles, saying offenders will be targeted "at every opportunity."
"Offenders on mopeds and motorcycles who attempt to evade the police are making a choice that puts themselves and others at risk," Commander Amanda Pearson said in a statement. "So our message is clear: we can, we will, and we do target those involved in moped and motorcycle crime at every opportunity."
The video shows police pursuing several suspects across London, many time ramming into them and knocking them off their bikes. |
