The main suspect wanted by police after two suitcases containing human remains were found on the Clifton Suspension Bridge has been stopped and filmed by a cyclist as he tried to flee the scene. As revealed in a video published by The Sun, the suspect can be seen shouting at the cyclist in what appears to be a state of panic.
The footage was taken by the cyclist on the night body parts were discovered in two blood-soaked suitcases on the famous bridge.
The video shows a man running along the road before being approached by the cyclist. When he sees the cyclist, he appears panicked and starts yelling in Spanish. He can be heard shouting “vete, vete” – meaning “go away, go away” – before shouting “Mi jefe es muy malo” – meaning “my boss is really mean.”
Officers from the Metropolitan Police and Avon and Somerset Police, who are investigating the gruesome discovery, released footage from the video earlier this week as they launched a manhunt for the suspect. In the video, the man appears to try to snatch the phone from the cyclist’s hands before running off into the night.
