Machete-wielding bikers have been spotted robbing a Rolex store.
A local worker captured the shocking moment a gang of six stole from the luxury watch store, where items retail for thousands of pounds.
One of the suspects – some of whom arrived on mopeds – can be seen swinging what was later confirmed to be a machete at the business’ security to keep them away.

The other members then rush the store, spending three minutes during the loot, where they took “a number of high-value watches”.
Police also state they “threatened members of staff and the public with weapons”, including machetes.
The horrific footage was captured at 11am on Tuesday (20 January), as reported by Need To Know.
A local witness, Dee, who works nearby, watched on in horror as the raid took place.
The video was taken outside of the Bucherer Rolex Boutique, Knightsbridge One, Hyde Park, London.
Fortunately, no injuries were reported despite the gang being armed.
Several men involved in the robbery fled the scene on mopeds with their faces covered by bike helmets.
Officers were called to the scene at 10:53 am.
Detective Chief Inspector Scott Mather from the Met’s Flying Squad, who is leading the investigation, said: “This robbery was carried out in a busy part of London, and we understand the alarm it has caused.
“The Flying Squad specialises in tracking down organised robbers who use violence and intimidation, and our officers are working to identify and arrest those responsible.
“Officers were on scene within minutes and investigators are working at pace to piece together the offenders’ movements.
“We are determined to find those involved and bring them to justice as swiftly as possible.”
There have been no arrests and detectives are appealing for witnesses.
