This is the shocking moment sword-wielding teenagers ran after a moped rider in front of horrified motorists in broad daylight.
Stunned onlookers filmed a youth brandishing a huge blade outside a primary school as he furiously chased the driver, coming within inches of him to scream ‘p****hole’.
The incident outside Kingswood Primary School in West Norwood, South London, comes after the capital yesterday saw its 61st murder investigation of 2019 launched.
Mobile phone footage began circulating this morning, two days after London suffered its fifth killing in six days.
Footage shows a sword-wielding youth chasing a moped rider through south London
A motorist recorded the attacker sprinting along the road in Norwood, south London
The video begins with a male sprinting after the moped rider with the huge knife.
The filming females scream in horror as the passenger shouts to the driver: ‘Drive away! No! No! No! Do you want to die! Look at the big knife! Oh my god! The big chopper that the man.. the little boy’s got you know! Nooo!’
She tells the driver to follow the young man and they drive towards a roundabout. The passenger then shouts: ‘This guy’s got a deathwish bruv! Do you see the big f***ing knife in his hand!’
The car catches up with the moped rider who astonishingly has stopped his vehicle to make gestures at the teen with the knife.
The bewildered passenger yells at the motorcyclist to ride away from the knife-brandishing thug: ‘Are you all right? Drive! Drive off! No seriously drive! Who wants to get stabbed up?’
LONDON’S MURDERS IN 2019
Where the 61 murders in the capital so far this year have been committed
Suddenly the motorcyclist starts driving as the teenager manages to catch up with his huge weapon still in hand.
The women in the car then laugh in unison and yell: ‘He’s taking the p*ss! Look at the knife!’
In another clip which is filmed later on a nearby road, the women have parked their car and found the moped driver – who has stopped his vehicle and is now filming the thug chasing after him on a mobile phone.
The females suggest that the motorcyclist also has a weapon and admonish him: ‘Exactly! You lot both have weapons!’
The teen is seen catching up to the moped with his gigantic knife still in his hand and the motorcyclist begins driving off.
The teen – who has arrived with a friend to confront the motorcyclist – screams: ‘F*** off p****hole! F*** off p****hole!’
As the thugs continue chasing after him, the woman says in despair to the camera: ‘These kids!’. The video then cuts to an end.
It is unknown who filmed the video and how the fight started between the motorcyclist and the young man. However the clash appears to be between rival gang members.

Social media users have been left appalled by the video. @itz.shenn wrote ‘Hate this world’ and @its-black-or-white commented ‘F***ing animals’.
Other individuals couldn’t believe the motorcylist’s nonchalant attitude to the knife-wielding teen and the fact that he stopped to take photos of them. @young.hamza wrote in shock: ‘Man started snapping them then whizzed off.’
