This is the incredible moment a man who was cycling with a GoPro camera helped police officers arrest a suspect who was running away from a crime scene in Bayswater, London.

The vigilante, known online as Cycling Mikey, said: "I was cycling along Inverness Terrace in London when this man ran from two police officers. I, wearing flip-flops, dismounted my bike and pushed it into the path of the running suspected offender. My bike has a front rack and handlebars, and the suspect hit those with his mid-thigh and fell in a tumble."

The suspect is seen on the footage falling on the ground a few seconds before being arrested and handcuffed by four police officers.

"As he fell, he threw a bag of white stuff into the bush. The police then arrested him and recovered the bag," explains the cyclist.
