The mugging victim could be seen throwing his bag towards the robbers as they approached in an attempt to appease them.

But they still kicked and punched him after rifling through his pockets to see if they could take any more belongings.

The two assailants jumped on the back of a getaway motorbike driven by a third man with police in hot pursuit before hitting a police vehicle head-on near a crossroads.

But as they speed down one road, a police car suddenly pulls out. Without time to make a dodging manoeuvre, the muggers smash into the car
