This the shocking moment a thief uses an angle grinder to slice through the lock on a moped outside a packed London pub.
The thief, dressed in black with a white helmet, is seen in the video squatting down as he uses the power tool outside The George IV pub on Chiswick High Street, west London on Saturday night.
Sparks fly from the rear wheel of the motorbike as the angle grinder cuts the vehicle free in a matter of seconds.
The brazen thief seemed undeterred by passing cars, pedestrians and onlookers inside the packed boozer.
The 18-second video ends with the crook wheeling away the moped.

Local resident Calvin McDonald said: 'I'd love to have been there to catch these lot in the act.
'Put it this way, the bike would be safe, and one of them would be pinned down by me feeling rather sorry for themselves.
'Whilst we wait for the old bill to take them away. Hate thieves, they really are bottom feeders.'
