Dashcam footage has captured the shocking moment a would-be thief tries to steal a bicycle from the back of a car – while it briefly stops at a red light.
In the one-minute clip, dated 3:24pm on Sunday, a man wearing a hoodie is seen cycling behind the car as it is travels down Tower Bridge Road in central London.
When the car stops at a crossing, the cyclist seizes his opportunity, and starts to remove a racing bike from the rack at the back of the vehicle.
