The incident occurred on a south London street as frightened families watched as the man was restrained nearby.
A small crowd watches as one of the officers holding the man on the ground speaks into the radio and mentions a “large machete” and “a wounded officer.”
The camera then pans to show a man standing holding his hand who appears to have a large bleeding cut on one of his fingers.
A police car can be seen stopping and parking near the road with sirens blaring.
