Horrific moment two people including a woman are violently mugged by thugs near London Euston station – leaving victims sprawled on the floor as capital is rocked by crime

This is the horrific moment two people, including a woman, were violently attacked near London’s Euston station in a daylight attack that left the victims sprawled on the ground.

The incident, which took place just yards away from the bustling Camden High Street, saw two men attack a man and a woman at around 7am this morning before driving away in a white Audi.

Another woman, who appeared to be a friend of the robbery victims, watched as the crime rocked the capital.

Now, grim footage has emerged of the two thugs brazenly punching and kicking the pair in Eversholt Street, north London, before apparently making off with some of their belongings.

Each man attacks one victim during the robbery as shocked bystanders watch and cars drive through the busy street in the capital.

A thug, wearing a black hoodie, violently attacks the male victim, who is wearing a light green hoodie and jeans, forcing him to the sidewalk.

As a car drives calmly past the scene, the attacker grabs the man and throws him onto the road before aggressively kicking him in the face.

He then rips something from his victim’s grasp before running away with it in his hand.

Meanwhile, the other attacker, wearing a purple hoodie, appears to drag the woman, who is dressed all in black, back onto the sidewalk by her hair as she tries to crawl onto the road.

He then pushes her head against the side of the road before she manages to free herself from his grasp and chase after the other thug.

But as she runs, the man who was holding her forcefully pushes her to the ground.

Despite the heavy fall, the woman manages to get up before she is pushed down again by the same man.

She remains lying in a parking lot on the side of the busy road while a motorcycle and a bus pass by.

The attackers then get into their white Audi 4×4 and drive away, narrowly avoiding crashing into the male victim who has wandered into the middle of the street.

There is indistinct shouting throughout, but towards the end you hear a man say, ‘let’s go’.

The incident took place just meters from London’s Euston station, one of the country’s busiest transport hubs, and Mornington Crescent tube station.

Nearby Camden High Street is one of the capital’s most popular tourist attractions and is expected to welcome thousands of people today on the hottest day of the year.

A spokesperson for the Met Police said:

‘Police were called at 6.55am on Sunday, May 12, to reports of a fight in Eversholt Street, NW1.

‘Officers have been to the scene. When police arrived, all parties had left. An investigation is underway into those involved.

‘Officers are aware of images shared on social media.

“Anyone who has been a victim is asked to contact police. Officers all want to hear from anyone who witnessed the incident or who has information that could assist their investigation.

‘Please call 101, ref 1757/12 May.’

The shocking attack comes just days after an alleged phone thief was knocked off his bike in the capital and confronted – before being quickly assisted by his machete-wielding accomplice.

The chaos unfolded in Stratford, North East London, on Sunday, May 5, and was captured on the dashcam of a passing car.

The man, who allegedly stole a cellphone, was sent away after being hit by a car, but was given backup in the form of his friend who brandished the large knife at his attacker.

The video shows the two masked men cycling along the road, with the first passing the dashcam car without incident.

But as the second cyclist cycles past, a car suddenly stops in the same lane as the filming motorcycle on the other side of the road.

The car deliberately crashes into the man’s bicycle, sending him flying into a tree, causing him to spin off his bicycle and fall onto the sidewalk.

The car comes to a stop on the other side of the road, while the wounded criminal gets to his feet and runs limping after his friend.

Seconds later, the alleged thief’s partner returns for revenge and quickly cycles back into view with his accomplice at his side.

The driver exits the vehicle and begins shouting at the thugs, but quickly returns after the second masked man pulls out a huge machete and drives towards the driver.

With the cavalry present to support him, the downed criminal grabs the abandoned bicycle from the side of the road and climbs back on.

Meanwhile, in April, a thief on a bicycle snatched a woman’s cell phone from her hands as she walked along the sidewalk.

The balaclava-clad criminal wasted no time in grabbing his startled victim’s phone before running away down a fashionable street in Albany Place in Marylebone, near the center of the capital.

An X account uploaded the clip with the warning words: ‘Keep your head on the dial when you’re in London.’

We see the female victim of the theft trying to chase after the perpetrator as he shouts, “Hey, come back here.”

Another cyclist wearing a balaclava had passed her in the seconds before.

Just days earlier, another bike thief in nearby Park Lane snatched a man’s mobile phone from his hand.

Video footage showed a cyclist riding in the middle of the main road and then turning off the road to ride on the path, before falling behind an unsuspecting pedestrian who was holding his phone and quickly swiping it.

And in March we saw two masked thieves take a phone and flee on their bikes in Hampstead, north London – before crashing into an oncoming car.

The series of brazen thefts in the city has sparked fears that visitors will leave London for fear of being the next target.

Another cyclist wearing a balaclava had passed her in the seconds before.

During London’s street crime epidemic last year, personal theft rose by 27 percent compared to the previous 12 months.

Metropolitan Police figures show that 72,756 of these crimes were reported in the year to 2023, up from 57,468 in 2022.

Moped and e-bike gangs have been identified as prolific culprits.
