Just Stop Oil protester dragged along road by police officer

A Met Police officer dragged a Just Stop Oil protester along a west London road during a demonstration.

At 08:00 BST some 66 Just Stop Oil supporters slow-marched in three groups on roads near West Kensington station as part of a sixth week of action.

An officer was recorded by the protest group dragging a supporter along the ground by his hi-vis vest on Talgarth Road, a busy route into the capital city.

Scotland Yard said the officer moved the man to "prevent them being harmed".
