Metropolitan Police have released body-worn camera footage from two officers who detained a man suspected of stabbing two people in Golders Green, north London.
The clip appears to show the suspect walking towards the officers before they deployed a Taser.
Officers are heard shouting “drop the knife” repeatedly as the suspect falls to the ground. They continue to issue the command while restraining him.
Metropolitan Police Commissioner Mark Rowley, speaking to reporters on Wednesday, praised the officers “who were on the scene within a few minutes and whose actions undoubtedly prevented further injury and saved lives”.
