Mobile phone footage shows the moment balaclava-wearing armed bikers terrorise a busy market. As horrified shoppers look on, the four bikers brandish a baseball bat and a pair of bolt cutters as they speed around the stalls.
One man appears to be attacked after challenging the gang, shortly before they speed off. The incident took place at Hyde Market in Tameside on Friday afternoon (August 25).
Police have since launched an investigation, and a Section 60 dispersal order is currently in place until 3.40pm today, with police stepping up patrols in the area over the weekend.
In the video, which has been widely shared on social media, a man in blue carrying a golf club appears to challenge the bikers.
