This is the dramatic moment a delivery rider was held by police officers as the crackdown on migrants working illegally in London's West End intensifies.
The man was patted down by an officer while another looked on, with a Deliveroo food bag seen on the floor in front of them during the Home Office-led operation.
The officer's jacket was placed on top of the bag before the unnamed man was led towards a marked police van at Cambridge Circus yesterday lunchtime at 12.30pm.
Police were also seen pulling over another food courier on a bicycle on nearby West Street, with that man ordered to stop before three officers spoke to him.
One witness claimed he saw nine bikes being seized in total, adding: 'On every corner of the junction bikes were being stopped when approaching the lights. I was then told it was an operation to target the e-bikes and any illegal immigrants working.'
