'Moped thieves attacked £3m Bugatti and held machete to woman's face'

Shocking footage caught the moment a 15-year-old boy, dressed as a Deliveroo driver, attacked the side window of Abdullah Al Basman’s Bugatti Chiron on Park Lane.

In a series of attempted robberies in just 45 minutes, a man was knocked to the ground near to Harrods as the thieves tried to steal his Rolex.

Another victim was left impaled on a fence as he fled, and the muggers ultimately got away with a £211,000 Patek Philippe watch snatched from a man’s wrist, Southwark crown court heard.

Ronnie Reid, 20, from Finsbury Park, north London, is accused of being one of the two moped riders involved in the spree on August 21 last year.

A 15-year-old boy has already admitted his part in the robberies, including the claw hammer attack on the Bugatti.
