Six people have been arrested after an "eagle-eyed" security man prevented a potential violent robbery in McDonald’s.
The suspects were detained after three boys, aged either 14 or 15, were targeted on Friday (December 14) at the fast food chain in The Glades shopping centre.

An officer for Bromley police told News Shopper: "The robbery was disturbed by the eagle-eyed Patrick, head of security, so plenty of credit should be given to him for his keen eye and fast actions."

Nobody suffered injuries and no weapons were found, although cannabis was discovered on one of six males arrested.
Another person led away in handcuffs is also a suspect in a robbery which took place on Elmfield Road earlier this month.
During the incident, plain clothed officers were patrolling The Glades.
