New footage has emerged of the attempted carjacking of Arsenal stars Mesut Ozil and Sead Kolasinac, revealing how the latter bravely fought of the knife-wielding attackers.
The video shows Kolasinac standing outside Ozil’s Mercedes G-Wagon, inside which Ozil was seated along with his wife, Amine Gulse. The armed attacker jabbed at the Bosnian defender in an attempt to rob the former Schalke duo. However, during the incident, Kolasinac showed how he had earned the nickname, ‘The Tank’.
Police announced Ashley Smith and Jordan Northover pleaded guilty to attempted robbery. Smith also pleaded guilty to possession of a Class B substance. They’ll be formally sentenced Friday.
“Northover didn’t hesitate to draw a weapon when making demands, but he didn’t bargain on being challenged and the pair went away empty-handed,” Chief Inspector Jim Corbett said. “The victim and the people who were visiting him, while unharmed, were shaken by the incident.”
