- Kyren Bryce, 23, drove on pavement and ran red lights in chase through London
- He reached speeds of up to 70mph as he drove away from police in Lambeth

Police footage shows the dramatic moment a crook on a moped was rammed off his bike by officers after he cut through a park and led them on a 70mph chase.
Kyren Bryce, 23, sped off after police signalled for him to stop along Kings Road in Kensington and Chelsea in April this year.
Bryce, from Hackney, ran red lights, overtook vehicles, cut through a busy park and drove on the pavement during the reckless high-speed chase.
But his time on the run came to a crashing halt when officers in a cop car used ‘tactical contact’ to send him sprawling to the floor.
Kyren Bryce admitted to dangerous driving after appearing at Croydon Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday. He will be sentenced at a later date

Cops from the Met Police’s Operation Venice moped crime unit were searching for a grey moped linked to a spate of robberies on April 23 when they spotted Bryce.
He was riding a grey moped down Kings Road, Kensington and Chelsea, west London, and sped off when officers signalled for him to stop.
Police chased Bryce through Lambeth and Brixton at breakneck speeds after trying to get him to stop in Kensington and Chelsea
Bryce raced away into into Lambeth at breakneck speeds, at times exceeding 70 miles per hour in residential areas,
He was zipping off down Brixton Roads when officers cut in and knocked him off his bike.
Sgt Tony McGovern – one of the Op Venice officers involved in the chase – said: ‘Bryce not only put his own life at risk, but also the lives of innocent members of the public for no reason other than to try and save his own skin.’
Locals were delighted with the police take down, with one person joking: ‘Tactical contact! Love that. Do it all the time to any door with my wheelchair.’
Rob added: ‘F***** ram him lads let’s goooo.’
