Footage has been released of the moment when a bystander tackled a machete wielding robber after a smash-and-grab raid on a luxury City of London jewellers.
City of London Police and armed officers were alerted to the incident on Liverpool Street just after 14:30 GMT on Thursday.
Three men on mopeds reportedly used sledgehammers to smash the shop windows before fleeing.
