A crowd of people watch on as the man before the struggling man is led away by police.

The topless man is shown being pinned by three officers in the middle of a busy road.

A video taken at the scene shows officers restraining a man on the ground.

A video taken earlier shows the man taunting an officer, grabbing a passer-by's suitcase and running about the London Street exit.

The Twitter user who posted the video of the man being detained wrote: "Just witnessed a Man trying to attack an officer at Paddington Station."

Another Twitter user said: "The police had the situation under control very quickly."

The man, who is pictured both with and without a t-shirt on, whooped and shouted as he ran from officers.

On social media viewers of the arrest video said the man is swearing in Romanian.
