The closure occurred just before 7 a.m., affecting both directions between Maple Street and Euston Road. TfL (Transport for London) footage shared on X revealed the road blocked by police vehicles, with the flashing blue lights of numerous emergency vehicles creating a dramatic scene.
Eyewitnesses at the scene reported a “high-speed chase” as part of the unfolding incident. However, it’s important to note that this account has not yet been officially confirmed by the police.
One individual, speaking on X, stated, “It was a high-speed chase, a moped going at high speed with two young lads was chased by police, and they hit the back of a bus at Warren Street.”
The incident has led to extensive traffic delays in the Tottenham Court Road vicinity, impacting commuters and residents alike. We have reached out to the Metropolitan Police for additional information, but at this time, they have not confirmed any casualties or provided further details about the nature of the incident.
This closure underscores the challenges and disruptions that can occur on London’s busy streets and serves as a reminder of the importance of road safety and law enforcement efforts to maintain order in the city.
