Shoppers' panic filmed after Bromley 'machete' incident

A machete has been recovered after a suspected knife fight broke out at a shopping centre on Boxing Day.

Officers were called to reports of an altercation at the Intu Bromley Shopping Centre at 15:45 GMT.

Video filmed by a member of the public, Alexander Adeosun, appears to show shoppers fleeing in panic, while a photo shows a police officer holding what appears to be a large knife.

A man in his 20s, who suffered a minor head injury, was arrested.

He was detained on suspicion of affray and possession of an offensive weapon.
