A knife-wielding thug was wrestled to the ground by police during a terrifying incident in Hull city centre on Wednesday.
Footage shows how the man, dressed in an Adidas tracksuit, throws a stolen blade at pursuing officers before he is bundled to the ground and arrested, Hull Live reports.
The incident was caught on camera by local shop owner Mark Harris who first alerted police after spotting two men arguing at 12pm.
The 55-year-old realised one of the men was armed with potentially two knives and decided to notify police officers after spotting a police van parked next to the derelict BHS building.
