A man has been filmed being chased on the tarmac at Heathrow Airport before being apprehended.
The individual, who was wearing something wide around his waist, was seen running away from at least four men within metres of moving and stationary aircraft.
The pursuit appeared to last around a minute-and-a-half before a van arrived with two people in fluorescent tops, and the man stopped running.

He was then pulled to the ground.
Several seconds later, a police van arrived.
The man was then put into the back of the vehicle.
The video was filmed on the YouTube channel Big Jet TV.
The person who took the footage also gave an ongoing commentary on the incident at the west London airport, saying: “What’s going on here? Why would there be people running across the [tarmac]?
“What’s this all about? That is not right.
“That geezer’s running from someone. They are chasing him.
“What are you doing mate? Get on the floor son, give yourself up.”
