Dramatic footage has emerged showing a knifeman being tasered by police near one of Britain’s busiest train stations – just hours after the Parsons Green tube terror.

Police swooped on Birmingham’s New Street at around 1pm as the country remained on high alert in the wake of the latest terrorist attack in London.

Four officers can be seen surrounding the suspect, who is twitching on the ground as one cop points a taser at him, in the middle of the city’s busiest shopping street.

Eyewitness Darryl Godden said: “I was exiting the Apple Store when people started moving away, not panicking as such, but a bit of a jostle

“I heard them shouting “drop the knife” and taser warnings and the crowd moved away hurriedly.

“Once I could get past the people he was on the floor in the position you see in the video.”

British Transport Police confirmed the man had been arrested in connection with possession of a knife and taken to hospital.

“The incident is believed to be drug related.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
