Police have released CCTV footage in an appeal to help identify a group of men following a violent robbery in East Finchley.
The incident occurred shortly before 11 pm last night in Long Lane.
The victims -two men aged 21 and 26 - were in a parked car at the junction with Trinity Road when they were approached by six males wearing balaclavas and armed with knives.
The suspects had arrived at the scene in a black Ford Galaxy.
The victims were assaulted and a Rolex watch and a wallet were stolen. As the suspects left the scene on foot, a substance - later found to be non-acidic- was sprayed at the victims.
