Watch the shocking moment a gang of thugs smash a chair over teen’s head and snatch his mobile

Shocking footage shows the moment a gang of teenage thugs used a chair to knock a 19-year-old man unconscious during a robbery.

The gang of about 10 people launched a vicious attack on the victim before taking his phone and a small amount of cash.

The victim was approached while walking down Streatham High Road, London, at about 10.15pm.

CCTV footage shows a group of teenagers wearing hooded tops kick the victim as he lies on the floor before smashing what appears to be a wooden chair over his head.

The victim was taken to hospital with cuts to his head, face and lips, but was not seriously injured.

Police have released CCTV footage of the suspects in the hope of tracing those responsible for the attack on April 30 this year.

The suspects are described as black males aged between 14 and 16.

A 13-year-old boy was arrested on suspicion of affray, robbery and possession of a Class B drug following the attack. He has been bailed until a date in November.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police on 101 or crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
