THIS is the shocking moment a gang of feral yobs savagely attack a delivery driver before appearing to steal his motorbike.
The footage shows a baying mob cheering and laughing as thugs repeatedly boot the rider in the head as he desperately tries to crawl away.
Some of the gang – who are wearing hoodies and hats to cover their faces – take running kicks at the man as he cowers on the ground.
The driver also appears to only be wearing his socks – suggesting the attackers may have stolen his shoes.
As the brutal attack continues, the person filming shouts: “Why so violent? Why so violent? Oh s**t. What…you what.”
One of the thugs then mercilessly dropkicks the delivery driver as another runs in and stomps on his head as he lays defenceless on the ground.
The video, which is understood to have been filmed in London, ends with one of the youths climbing on to the moped.
Social media users have condemned the footage after it was posted online.
One blasted: “I hope they’re all behind bars. How the f**k you coming for someone minding their own business and trying to make a living.”
Another fumed: “Scum of the earth mate all cowards on their own.”
It comes after a Deliveroo driver was thrown off his scooter during a shocking attack in Newham, East London, on Saturday.
The terrifying attack comes as London fights a deadly violent crime epidemic – with last year being the capital’s bloodiest in almost a decade.
Homicides reached 135 thanks to a plague of knife attacks gripping the city.
Deliveroo and UberEats riders are increasingly finding themselves vulnerable to gangs on the streets.
Uber Eats rider Iderval Da Silva, 46, was beaten to death outside a restaurant in Battersea, South West London, in May.
Mr da Silva suffered catastrophic injuries as he tried to stop a moped gang steal his bike.
A 16-year-old boy was later charged with his murder.
Footage emerged in December of a Deliveroo rider being savagely beaten by a gang of ten youths while delivering a KFC order in Moston, Manchester.
Members of the gang punched his back and kicked his ankles after their accomplice stole his phone.
Riders are often targeted by gangs who lure them to locations by placing fake orders using stolen credit cards.
In 2017, a Sun on Sunday probe found police across the country have dealt with almost 500 crimes involving Deliveroo drivers in two years.
