This is the moment a security guard kicked a homeless man in Westminster on Friday evening (March 31).
The clip filmed outside the famous Red Lion pub - known for being frequented by Members of Parliament and civil servants - shows the moment a security guard in a hi-vis jacket working for the Fuller's brewery kicked out at homeless man as he was walking away from the pub and had his back to him.
“The homeless man was just begging at the Red Lion by Parliament, when their private security kicked and attacked him,” the filmer told Newsflare.
The clip continues to show the moment Essex County Council Councillor Stephen Canning intervened to try and help the homeless man by stepping in-between the two.
“When the security guard chased the homeless man I ran after them and put myself between them both; the police arrived but the homeless man left as he was scared, understandably. Therefore the police told us they can’t charge the security guard as there was no victim.”
A spokesperson for Fuller’s said: “When the video was brought to our attention, we made immediate contact with the security company and they are conducting a thorough investigation.”
