As they cut the bike free, three men grab the handle bars and try to wrestle it away from the thief who was jumping on the bike, who blasts: ‘Let go my bike. Let go my bike.’
He then snatches the angle grinder from his accomplice and lunges at them, shouting: ‘F****** come near me, I dare you. Who’s gonna come near me?’
