Shane O'Brien, 31, (pictured) is the chief suspect in the murder of 21-year-old Josh Hanson, who was killed in an unprovoked knife attack in a bar in Hillingdon. He has just been caught in Romania after going on the run four years ago
Britain's most wanted man is pictured today being dragged into court by Romanian police - after a dramatic video has emerged showing him being arrested.
Shane O'Brien, 31, originally from Ladbroke Grove in London, has been on the run since 2015 and is the chief suspect in the murder of 21-year-old Josh Hanson, who was killed in an unprovoked knife attack in a bar in Hillingdon, west London.
Mr Hanson was stabbed in the neck in front of around 40 horrified onlookers.
Suspect O'Brien was arrested at 4pm yesterday and bundled into a van by shocked onlookers.
He is then pictured being taken to court by police to confirm the European Arrest Warrant on behalf of the Metropolitan Police, which is against him.
A £50,000 reward was put on O'Brien's head in 2017, two years after Mr Hanson's death.
O'Brien, who heads the National Crime Agency's 'most wanted' list, was flown out of the UK in a privately chartered plane from Biggin Hill Airport after Mr Hanson's death.
At the time, it was believed he could be hiding in the Netherlands but it later emerged he had travelled to Dubai.
In February 2017 he was arrested in Prague for criminal damage and assault, but used the Italian alias of Enzo Mellonceli, supported by false documentation, and was bailed pending further enquiries.

Shane O'Brien, 31, originally from Ladbroke Grove in London , has been on the run since 2015 and is the chief suspect in the murder of 21-year-old Josh Hanson, who was killed in an unprovoked knife attack in a bar in Hillingdon, west London

It is believed he had spent time in the Netherlands, Dubai and at least seven months in Prague where he may have had a string of affairs with women and spent time in boxing clubs, gyms and nightclubs.
Police photos taken at the time show O'Brien had changed his appearance, having longer hair and a beard as well as a large tattoo of an owl holding a skull that covers a large portion of his back.
This was to cover up a distinctive tattoo he had that said 'Shannon 15-04-06'.
Mr Hanson, from Kingsbury, north-west London, died at the scene after the incident at the RE Bar in Hillingdon where he was stabbed in front of 40 onlookers

O'Brien was placed on a world-wide most wanted list in 2018 after he had been on the run for three years
Ian Cruxton, the National Crime Agency's head of international operations, said: 'O'Brien has spent several years looking over his shoulder as he has been at the centre of an extensive operation to track him down.
'I'm delighted that the pressure brought to bear by this has finally resulted in him being captured as a result of close working with the Romanian authorities.
'I hope his arrest offers some comfort to the family and friends of Josh Hanson.'
Mr Hanson lived with his sister Brooke and mother Tracey in Kingsbury, near Wembley.
Reacting to the news on Twitter, the Josh Hanson Trust, a charity set up in the wake of his death, thanked DCI Noel McHugh, the officer investigating the case followed by 'Love you Josh'.
Another tweet read: 'Today on the 23rd of March 2019 and after 3 and a half years of waiting today is Josh's day.'
In an emotional appeal from 2017, his mother said: 'Take a minute and look at your child and imagine your world without him or her…no - neither could have I done before my son was brutally murdered in a totally unprovoked knife attack on 11 October 2015.
'These past 24 months have been a living nightmare, a nightmare that I would not wish on anyone. I nurtured my son from the moment I saw him, held his hand while he took his first steps, handed him his school bag on his first day of school and watched him grow into a bright, capable, funny and loving young man who worked hard and provided for his family.
'We laughed and cried together and shared our innermost thoughts and secrets; he was my son and he was also my best friend.'
She added: 'He was my son and he was also my best friend...it rips at your soul and your very being.'
The process of his extradition back to the United Kingdom has now begun.
Mr Hanson's family have been kept fully up to date with developments.

Britain’s most wanted man is pictured today...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
