CCTV captures terrifying moment sword-wielding suspect, 36, is tasered and ... trends now
Dramatic CCTV footage has emerged showing the moment a sword-wielding man was tasered and arrested by police after going on a bloody rampage in Hainault that left a 14-year-old boy dead and four others injured.
Police had scrambled to east London, following reports that a van had rammed into a home just before a knifeman started prowling the streets.
After attacking the boy, who was 'on his way to school', he fought two officers and a passersby before being tasered and arrested in a bloody scuffle.
The injured officers were rushed to hospital with 'serious' injuries. Two members of the public were also treated following the horror rampage that unfolded.
Police say, the suspect has been arrested on suspicion of murder and is currently in hospital where he is being treated for injuries he received when he crashed his van into a home.
In the clip, officers can be seen demanding the 36-year-old suspect drop his weapon as he stands with sword in hand in front of a garage. Officers then taser the suspect who is then detained on the ground.
Footage captured moments before the arrest shows the knife wielding thug, dressed in a yellow hoodie, stood on top of a garage roof before entering a resident's garden.

The terrifying scenes were recorded by a member of the public, who can be heard desperately warning people to 'lock your doors' while officers scramble to subdue the man and prevent him injuring anyone else.
The shocking attack has seen both Rishi Sunak and Kier Starmer pay tribute to the victims and King Charles has also 'saluted' the courage of officers who worked to bring the attack to a close.
Metropolitan Police Assistant Commissioner Louisa Rolfe said police have found 'no trace of a prior incident' involving the suspect arrested following multiple stabbings in Hainault after speculation about his background, including police contact with him.
Locals told MailOnline they saw a man 'covered in blood' outside their homes in the Thurlow Gardens area.
Daniel Garfinkle, who lives outside the Tube station, said: 'I woke up at 7am to lots of shouting. There was a guy outside covered in blood, near the station and outside my home.
'Police were trying to calm down the man who carried out the stabbing. But he went towards the station. He kept shouting.'
A neighbour from nearby Laing Close, who witnessed the attacks said they could 'not stop envisioning the boy's face'.

James Fernando, 39, said the suspect had asked one of his neighbours to 'take the telephone from him to tell whoever was on the phone his location'.
He said: 'Within two seconds after that she's realised something isn't right, started running and he's pulled a samurai sword from the back of his trouser.
'She's shouted to the other neighbour - a Nigerian boy who was on his way to school.
'As he's turned around, he's struck him on the face.
'It's quite traumatising now. I can't stop envisioning the boy's face.'
Gana Ignat lives in Andrew Close, across the road from where the attack happened, and witnessed a man leaving the property covered in blood as police arrived.
She told MailOnline: 'I saw something happen outside and heard screams, I didn't understand what had happened and thought maybe it was a child.

There remains a heavy police presence in the area
'My daughter came into my room and said 'mum, mum something is happening outside'.
'I went outside and the police shouted 'no, no please go back in your house' because he is dead.
'I went back into the house, on the second floor, and I saw through the window a man in a yellow hoody running quickly through the car park outside, though a garden and past another house.
'After a few minutes another lady came outside and was frightened and shouting 'police, police, ambulance' because he was in the house.
'The husband or brother maybe, I don't know, went outside and his hand and arm were covered in blood.
'I saw a woman down on the floor but I couldn't see what had happened to her because of all of the police and ambulances. And then there was the other man covered in blood.
'I saw the man running away and after that I don't know, I saw all the police and a helicopter.'
Another local resident described hearing screaming and shouting early on Tuesday before seeing police cordoning off a nearby road.
Mr Bell said the suspect had been tasered at the scene and arrested 22 minutes after the first call to police was made
New North Road resident Ray Leigh Mason, 44, said 'I heard a shout, something along the lines of 'there's nothing you can do mate', then screaming.
'The shouting must've been around 06.50am and at the time of it occurring, I wrongly assumed it was neighbours arguing, which quite often happens at all hours.
'I should've been up earlier and likely would be outside as it happened, but I stayed in bed an extra 15 minutes.
'I looked out of the window to see the police arriving
