The clip shows Lechhed, dressed in a Hawaiian shirt, blue jeans, and sunglasses, calmly walk past a bustling pub. He simply kneels down and picks up a black bag from the floor, as if it belonged to him. The thief takes advantage of a split second the owner's back is turned from the street. But, within moments, three plain clothes police officers appear from nearby and chase the yob. They pursue him through busy streets and navigate congested London roads. The 26-year-old discarded the item as he was running, before being caught and detained on London Bridge in five minutes. Inspector Dan Green, of the City of London Police's proactive acquisitive crime team, said: 'The stolen bag, and the contents, was soon returned to the owner, before they knew it was stolen. 'The victim was full of praise for our officers when he got his bag back so quickly and we made an arrest. 'This is another fantastic result from our plain-clothed officers. 'Our warning to criminals; don't come into the City to steal bags. If you do, you risk being spotted by our plain-clothed officers, who will track you down, arrest you and bring you to justice.' Lechhed, of no fixed abode, was sentenced to four months in jail for theft. He was also slapped with a criminal behaviour order which prevents him from entering the Square Mile for two years. This comes as other shocking moments have been caught on camera across the UK. This is the wild moment all hell breaks loose after Morrisons shopper launches items at customers at self-checkout desks. The dramatic footage depicting staff breaking up the brawl, was captured inside an Eccles store, in Salford, Manchester, on June 3. It shows a woman hurling items in her basket through the air in front of horrified onlookers. Someone can be heard yelling "you stupid b****" as the irate shopper continues to throw products. Concerned Morrisons staff attempt to jump in and diffuse the situation with help from security guards. But the disturbing scene escalates after the woman kicks another customer, throwing her to the floor. Elsewhere, a cyclist was filmed tearing between traffic with a child clinging to his back before going the wrong way through a roundabout. Concerning footage showed the man riding in a cycle lane on Springfield Road, in west Belfast, with the youngster on his back. The child, who didn't appear to be wearing a helmet or any protection padding, was riding piggyback style. At one point the little one, donning a short sleeved red top and beige shorts, flung their legs out to the side - barely clinging on as they gripped the man's neck. Plus, watch the shocking moment a knifeman lunged at cops after biting his victim's ear off. The disturbing scenes unfolded after a robbery went wrong at a property in Leicester on July 8 last year. Dramatic body-cam footage shows Costel Remus Galoi lunging at police with a kitchen blade. 5 Three plain clothed police officers chase the thief down Credit: Facebook/City Of London Police

Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE LOVE Island girls have gone to war after Toni dumped Harrison over a "sneaky" Helena snog. The American bombshell, 24, branded her co-star a "sneaky b***h" after the pair sneaked off to the Hideaway. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 The Love Island girls have gone to war after Toni dumped Harrison over a "sneaky" Helena snog. Credit: Eroteme 5 Toni told Harrison that she was upset that he had kissed someone after their date Credit: Eroteme 5 Helena told Toni to shut up when she heard her arguing Credit: Eroteme Helena told Harrison tonight that she's not feeling Giorgio and that she doesn't fancy him. But Shakira and Toni were watching the pair and Shakira warned: 'She's what he'd go for in the outside world.' 'Don't put demons in my head,' Toni replied. Shakira continued: 'I just don't want you to look like a mug… I see that he's still invested in other people and I don't want you to be all in for him.' Helena then called it quits with Giorgio and headed to the Hideaway Terrace with Harrison as Toni watched on. After they returned to the garden Harrison and Toni talked at the Firepit. She told him: 'We just went on a f***ing date yesterday and you're already going to the Hideaway with another girl.' He then admitted that he and Helena had a kiss on the terrace. "I hope you enjoyed it," retorted Toni. She then remarked that she thinks it's weird that Helena is smiling at her knowing that she likes Harrison. Love Island shock as Remell and Megan are sent packing in savage dumping Helena told Toni to shut the f*** up and Shakira told her not to say that. Shakira then had a go at Harrison for not being truthful to Toni about how he feels about Helena. Then Meg, Helena, and Remell separately, questioned why Shakira was getting involved in the argument. Later, Shakira then gave Harrison a piece of her mind about his behaviour. She said: 'I don't know what planet you're on, you've obviously upset the girl, you know what reaction it was going to have…' But then the Islanders received a text and were asked to sit around the firepit for the results of the public vote. And fans were left in shock as "cheaters" Remell and Megan were sent packing in a savage vote. 5 Shakira had a word with Harrison and told him he must have known how Toni would feel Credit: Eroteme

Terrifying moment passenger planes collide on runway as wing rips through stationary Airbus leaving hundreds stranded
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THIS is the harrowing moment two planes collide on a runway - with one slicing through the other's tail wing moments before it takes off. Hundreds were left stranded after the horror collision, which saw a Boeing jet's wing rip through a stationary Airbus in front of terrified passengers. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 A plane sliced through another one's wing on a runway Credit: x/Fahadnaimb 3 Debris scattered across the tarmac during the horror collision Credit: x/Fahadnaimb 3 Nearly 400 passengers disembarked both flights Credit: x/Fahadnaimb The two Vietnam Airlines aircraft smashed into each other at Noi Bai International Airport in Hanoi, Vietnam on June 27. Both flights were grounded and nearly 400 passengers from the two planes were evacuated back to the terminal. In the shocking footage, a blue Airbus can be seen taxi-ing just moments before take-off. But seconds later, another jet's right wing shreds through the rear section of the stationary aircraft - almost like butter. Frightened passengers watched in horror as they saw debris scatter across the tarmac. The plane then stopped and disembarked hundreds of panicked flyers. The crash occurred at 2:23pm local time, and involved a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner bound for Ho Chi Minh City, clipping the tail of a stationary Airbus A321. The Airbus was waiting to depart for Dien Bien, the airport authorities said. The dramatic collision took place at the intersection of taxiways S and S3, under clear weather conditions. Initial investigations suggest the Airbus stopped short of the designated holding point. Heart-stopping moment flames erupt from airborne 153-passenger American Airlines flight as pilot makes eerie disclosure Authorities are therefore looking at pilot error as a potential reason for the smash. A probe has been launched to find any operational or communication-based lapses in judgement. The 386 total passengers from both jets were unharmed. After being left stranded - Vietnam Airlines arranged alternate flights for them to take. Both planes were towed to remote stands for technical inspection. A formal investigation has been started by the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam (CAAV) and the Northern Airports Authority. The terrifying footage comes after a recent string of horror aviation accidents. Heartstopping footage showed the moment an American Airlines flight saw smoke and sparks flying from the plane's engine. Harrowing video of the incident was shared on social media, showing puffs of smoke and orange sparks coming from the plane's engine. And last week, a Ryanair flight crashed into a barrier and suffered a badly smashed wing after landing at a Greek airport. The Boeing 737 suffered 'severe turbulence' during the flight, before those onboard heard a huge bang as the aircraft landed and collided with a barrier.
