Shocking footage of an injured boy being mugged in the North London riots has emerged as conflict continued across the country last night.

The young man was filmed sitting on the floor dazed as he appeared to have an injury to his mouth. Surrounded by a number of youths he is helped to his feet by one, stepping carefully past a pool of his blood.



As he stood upright a man searched into the boy's backpack, snatching items from the bag. Other youths joined the mugging, grabbing anything they could find from the vulnerable victim's pack.



The footage posted online mirrors scenes across North London where looting has been rife.
