Recently, the “bumping gang” emerged on the streets of London, with several victims coming forward to share their troubling experiences.
On May 8, TikTok influencer Aylamellek, who has 148,000 followers, described how a tall, muscular man, estimated to be around 6 feet 4 inches, charged at her and knocked her to the ground as she was walking.
After the attack, the man fled the scene immediately.
“I got so lucky I didn’t hit my head on a concrete slab or a nail; there are many boats along that canal with plenty of boat hooks,” she shared in her video post.
