A fourth person has been charged following an allegation of a gunpoint robbery of a Free Now private hire driver.

The charges follow shocking footage showing a Free Now driver being attacked by a gang of four in his vehicle during an alleged robbery in west London.

The video captured on a dashcam shows the attack on the minicab driver after an argument over the number of passengers allowed in the car.
