Chilling moment robber tells innocent victim to ‘shhhh’ – before gang launch sickening assault

This is the chilling moment a robber told an innocent victim to ‘shhhh’ before a gang of four jumped out of a car to launch a sickening assault on the pedestrian.

The CCTV footage from 10.58pm on Monday night shows a silver VW hatchback stop in the middle of Milton Avenue in East Ham as a pedestrian with a carrier bag walks down the pavement.

Three men jump out the car and surround the pedestrian from three sides, with his back to a front garden wall.

The gang member to the victim’s right – wearing a black coat – grabs him from behind, stopping him in his tracks.

Then a robber wearing a green hoodie gets in front of the victim’s face and puts his right index finger to his lips, to say ‘shhh’.

The victim struggles as the gang of four, which includes a man in a white hoodie and the car driver who had since got out, try to rummage through his pockets.

The men pull at his limbs and steal his belongings as he squirms on the floor before they run back into the car.

And less than a minute after the robbery began, the final thief, in the green hoodie, starts running back to the car to join his fellow robbers.

He pursued by the victim but the savage quickly turns and punches him him hard in the face.

He then punches him twice more before the victim is knocked the ground.

The victim stays sitting on the ground for a moment, appearing dazed, before he gets up and tries to process what has just happened.

The Met Police has been contacted for further details.
