Use of non-white police vehicles in what looks like a peas poor roadblock ?
And unless it's LHD, wouldn't breaking other window have been more effective at getting keys off the ?.

I know the area where that happened. Grew up in Loughton. That road they are in is a dead end as leads to the Bank of England printing press. The filming is from the forecourt of the BMW dealers and the buidling in the background is Higgins the building company offices. They did well to block them in there as that is quite a wide junction.
Bit of useless info but the reason there is no slip road onto the M11 there to go north was to prevent anyone robbing the printing press and then dissapearing off into the countryside up the M11 but this was all in the days before fast pursuit vehicles and police helicopters. They council do finally own the land to be able to build the missing slip roads but have never got around to it.2006 TdV6 HSE.

At that age, it's a shame that this will simply be a badge of honour for them as they walk away and this will be viewed with respect by their peers. If one of them had done anything looking like he were reaching for a weapon or there had been an ND as that rifle barrel punctured the window, there would have been endless gushing praise for these 'angels' and tales of what perfect kids they were.

I don't think I would have told them a third time. Considering how narked they get when someone tells them to f**", their language is was bit fruity...

Full credit to the Police, they need more power to be able to do this sort of thing on a regular basis.
More police are required on our streets. Unfortunately it’s a job for them. They deserve all our support

Likewise I used to live nearby and went to school in Loughton.
They clearly didn't know where they were going to have turned down that road. Believe they had been involved in a crime in Enfield.
Thought police did a cracking job. If that had been the USA there may have needed 4 body bags.Today is the oldest you've been and the youngest you'll ever be again.
