A gang wielding a gun and knives was seen storming a bus and robbing the terrified passengers on board.

Chilling security footage shows the gang boarding the bus before launching their raid on the unsuspecting travellers on 27 October.

The incident reportedly happened aboard the 650 bus in Brazil’s Manaus state.

Those on board are said to have been threatened with the weapons before the thieves made off with around £17 from the bus conductor.

In a bid to track down those responsible, police released footage of the robbery.
