A KNIFE-WIELDING attacker was tackled by brave members of the public, who apprehended him when he attempted to speed off from the scene of a fight in Cardiff on a getaway bicycle.
Dramatic footage shows the desperate criminal attempting to escape after a fight broke outside a hotel in the Welsh capital.
But a brave member of the public tackled him off of his bike as he attempted to flee police during a chase through the city centre.
The video footage, captured on Saturday (15 April) by a bystander, shows suspect Muaz Tarafdar, 20, being smashed into the ground as he attempted to speed off.
In the video, the man cycles towards a set of traffic lights before a man in a blue hooded jumper tackles him to the ground.
However, the bumbling assailant attempted to get up off the ground, before ANOTHER bystander, who was crossing the road, grounds him once again.
Tarafdar was found with a large knife in his backpack after he was arrested at the scene, reports Wales Online.
The details of the altercation, or the exact location of the fight, have not been disclosed. Express.co.uk has contacted South Wales police for comment.
Following the incident, Tarafdar of No Fixed Abode, was jailed for six months on Monday, after admitting to possessing a dangerous weapon.
Representing him in court, Nia James told how Tarafdar had a "£10 a day crack cocaine habit" and had "significant difficulty with cannabis".
Upon sentencing, Judge Bodfan Jenkins told Tarafdar:“You had in your possession a particularly, if not highly, dangerous weapon in very dangerous circumstances."
Continuing, the judge said: “In the circumstances of the case this clearly crosses the custody threshold. There can be no reason for suspending the sentence.
Maybe the Brits are finally getting tired of this crap and lashing out against the criminals. we have to wait and see.

How about the last knock-down tackle?
That fellow has played a bit of soccer. Took the legs right out from under the perp.

“shows suspect Muaz Tarafdar, 20, ”
Obviously a Welshman.
L
How Islamophobic of them.
Doesn't sound very Welsh.
Those “Englishsters” can get feisty!~sarc
Definitely worth watching a couple of times.
Would they charge all these guys who chased down and caught the fellow with the knife. They committed an open and shut hate crime of Islamophobia. One must not interfere with a Moslem who is carrying out his religious duties.
It's not that hard. In a pinch, you can use a bent soda can with a couple of pinholes punched in it.
Oh.... wait...
Never mind.
‘To liberals, you have a duty to die or be injured when attacked by a criminal, especially if he is nonwhite.’
Even ‘white Hispanics,’ are expected to die or be injured.
George Zimmerman.
Well it took them awhile to release Tony Martin but hey, they didn’t bring any charges against the 78 year old guy who stabbed and killed that burglar. Maybe folks are coming to their senses.
Charming. Those eyes are gleaming with intelligence. I can see why the Brits are importing such people.
Sure, but did you see the guy who took the perp down with a punch at 0:09?
LOL. Been there done that. A looong time ago.
......suspect Muaz Tarafdar.....
Obviously a Welshman.....just poking fun at his fellw citizens.
Another sub human genetic defective.
Too bad they didnt have a few muslem scimitars to finish the job.
The authorities should press charges! After all, those nasty vigilantes deliberately ignored UK police instructions.
