Jeremy Vine has since said "George" was a Chelsea fan according to eye witnesses

Mr Vine, who regularly shares videos caught on over-head cameras by cyclists on their travels, posted a clip of the yob to X, formerly Twitter, on February 4.

In the video, "George" can be seen holding a crutch, shouting and chasing members of the public in London.

Wolves had defeated Chelsea on their home turf on the day the video was posted and Mr Vine suggested "George" could be a Wolves fan.

Writing on X, the DJ said: "Meet George, who came to watch Wolves play Chelsea today and was so happy with the result he decided to try to attack some people with a crutch."
