This is the shocking moment a machete-wielding thug is mowed down by a car before being abandoned by his accomplices on the side of the road.
The man in his 20s sustained serious head injuries after being thrown into the air and flung 50ft along the pavement in broad daylight.
West Midlands Police is appealing for information about the incident which happened in Erdington, Birmingham, at around 1.30pm last Friday.
Footage filmed on a home CCTV camera shows a man in a black tracksuit sprinting along the road, apparently pursued by three masked men in black wielding machetes and bats.
