The clip begins after the officers have already stopped the Blue 4×4 in a supermarket car park.
Two men can be seen crouched on the ground as the officers aim their weapons toward the suspects and begin shouting orders at them.
One says: ‘Get down on the floor, turn around on the floor. Get on your belly now… No sudden movements.’
The men comply and lay face down on the pavement with their hands flat to the ground.
