A crazed knifeman chased a man into a restaurant and began ruthlessly stabbing him before briefly pausing to start filming his brutal attack. Violence explodes as the hoodie-wearing attacker pursues his victim into the London restaurant and send his tumbling to the floor. The Metropolitan police were called to a report of a stabbing at a restaurant in Willesden, London on the evening of Tuesday, April 1.
The victim is captured on CCTV footage, sprinting desperately into the restaurant, being chased by the knifeman. He then desperately attempts to hold the door shut, but is overpowered by the attacker, who bends his arm around the door gap and begins wildly slashing with his blade.
As the victims attempts to evade the knife the attacker kicks the door down and shoves his victim to the ground.
He is then seen repeatedly stabbing the prone man several times with the knife before suddenly stopping and taking his phone out of his pocket to begin filming.
The knifeman, who is wearing a white mask, stabs and kicks the victim several more times, appearing to land blows to his torso, legs and bottom, before another man enters the restaurant and manages to usher the assailant away.
Incredibly as the knifeman flees the victim is able to stagger to his feet and walk.
In the lead up to the stabbing, a man was also seen chasing another driver before getting out of his vehicle to knife the victim.
Mobile phone footage captured the attacker following the victim in his car, causing the victim to swerve into a parked vehicle.
Police believe the perpetrator then allegedly went on to carry out the vicious attack in the restaurant.
The victim, a man in his 20s, was subsequently rushed to hospital with stab wounds following the attack.
A Met Police spokesperson said: “Police were called at around 9:06 pm on Tuesday, 1 April, to reports of a stabbing inside a restaurant in Walm Lane, Willesden.
“A man in his 20s then self-presented to the hospital with stab wounds. His condition is not life-threatening or life-changing.'
“It is believed the victim was driving his car when he was followed by the suspect in another vehicle.
“A collision took place, and the victim ran into the restaurant where he was stabbed. No arrests have been made at this time. But officers continue to follow all available lines of enquiry.”
