It's important that people don't keep lumping these attacks and "bike theft" together.
Although there is the possibility of the rider's bikes being taken, this is violent mugging, and needs to be treated as such. Especially where the police are concerned.
Cutting a chain and taking a bike is very different to assaulting a person in the street.
