This is the alarming moment a driver knocks a police officer to the floor before being rammed by a patrol car.
Shocking footage, taken near Park Royal, shows two cops trying to open the suspect’s door before the vehicle suddenly lurches backwards and hits one of them.
The officer is then seen lying in the road as his colleague chases the car on foot while hitting it with a baton.
Just moments later a police vehicle speeds onto the chaotic scene to provide back up and tries to stop the driver by shunting into them.
A loud bang can be heard as the two cars collide but the suspect still managed to drive away.
Fortunately the stricken cop could be seen getting to his feet and is not believed to have sustained serious injuries.
