This is the moment council enforcement officers threatened to 'knock out' a member of the public.

Harrow Council, in northwest London, have sacked two employees who were filmed intimidating a man on the street after accusing him of 'messing with our money'. 

During the minute-long encounter on June 13, the two enforcement officers, both wearing hoods over their bright purple jackets and black vests, which are equipped with body-worn cameras, tell the man they are going to 'rip his teeth out'. 

One of them told the him that 'when I'm not in uniform, I'm gonna knock you the f**k out and rip your teeth out', before adding: 'I'll come and throw you through the f*****g walls.' 

The enforcement officers even threatened to call the police to Northolt Road in South Harrow because an officer would 'f**k you up'. 

Footage begins with one of the council workers, wearing the black hood, confronting the member of the public - who was recording the incident - and saying: 'What did you think I was going to do? I don't need to tell you what I was going to do.' 

The other officer, wearing a red hood, then walks into view and presses a button on his colleague's body-worn video camera, to which the other responds: 'It's off.' 

The enforcement agent in the black hood then continues: 'Don't butt in my business.' 

The man recording responds by saying: 'You know what you're doing out here. You know what you're doing.' 

The council worker in the red then turns around and begins to verbally threaten the member of the public as he becomes increasingly aggressive. 

As he turns off his body camera, the officer tells the man: 'You act like you're trying to mess with our money. I'm going to show you something right now. 

'Come to the alleyway right now, we're gonna show you what time it is. We're gonna show you what time it is bruv. 

'We're gonna make sure you can't work no more and earn no money 'cause you're trying to butt in with our money - and bruv, do you know what I do to people like that? Come here now. Let's go.' 

The enforcement agent then gestures for the man to follow him across the busy road as he stands in a bus lane before saying: 'I swear when I'm not in uniform, I'm gonna knock you the f**k out and rip your teeth out. Do you know that? If I give you one punch I'll knock all your teeth out.' 

As the argument intensifies, the officer in the black hood adds that 'we've got people to feed' before the man filming tells both of them: 'I don't know why you're getting aggressive.' 

The worker in the red hood continues, gesturing with his thumb towards the road: 'Come across the road now 'cause you're trying to mess with our money bruv. I'm gonna show you what time it is, come now. 

'If I call a police officer for you, he'll f**k you up, you know, 'cause we work with them and you didn't know that did you? So come across the road now 'cause I'm gonna show you what time it is.' 

He then begins to unzip his black vest, on which his body-worn video camera is mounted, before adding: 'Bruv I ain't having no one disrupt my job you know. 

'Do I come and disrupt your money when you're painting and f*****g decorating, you wasteman? I'll come and throw you through the f*****g walls brother and put paint all over you.' 

It is understood the enforcement agents work for Kingdom Services Group and had been contracted by Harrow Council.

According to its website, the company provides a 'local authority support' service that is 'committed to helping local authorities create safer, cleaner and more welcoming communities'. 

It states: 'Our expert team offers tailored environmental enforcement and community safety solutions and strategies that combat environmental crime, reduce anti-social behaviour, and improve community life for your residents.'

Kingdom also provides health, training, security, cleaning and recruitment services - and its clients include private healthcare provider Bupa, the NHS, Haringey Council and Tesco.

Harrow Council's website states that it has 'partnered' with Kingdom Local Authority Support, who work alongside its enforcement officers to issue fixed penalty notices.  

It is currently unclear what the argument was about, why it started or who the man filming the incident is. 

But the footage, already widely shared on social media, has prompted a quick response from Harrow Council. 

The local authority has condemned the incident as 'unacceptable' and said the enforcement officers in the video have subsequently been sacked. 

A spokesperson for the council said in a statement: 'We are aware of a video circulating in relation to the conduct of two enforcement officers. 

'Swift action was taken as soon as the incident and complaint were raised to us and Kingdom in May, and the individuals involved no longer work for Kingdom.

'We take any instance of officers deliberately turning off body-worn cameras extremely seriously. 

'Threats of violence towards members of the public are wholly unacceptable and will not be tolerated.' 

The Daily Mail has approached Kingdom Services Group for comment. 

Last September two enforcement officers in Harrow accused a resident of spitting in the street - which the man claims he didn't do - before fining him £100. 

Kamal Shah, 63, has since had the fixed penalty notice overturned - but said he felt like he had been 'stereotyped' by the officers, whom he described as 'very intimidating'. 

Mr Shah, who denies spitting at all, told the BBC: 'They said I spat in the air. They couldn't show me any evidence.

'I feel like I was stereotyped. On the day my leg was hurting, I was limping a bit. I looked older, an easy target.'

Despite Kingdom's officers wearing body-worn video cameras, these had only captured the moment they approached Mr Shah. 

And last year a different enforcement company issued a five-year-old girl with a £1,000 fly-tipping fine. 

Harrow Council later cancelled the fixed penalty notice and APCOA apologised to the girl's family over the incident.
