The Ambush of Leopard StreetYears later in London, Inspector Munyard (Ronald Leigh-Hunt) investigates the murder of a drunk who claims to have sold his amputated hand for 500. Scotland Yard begins searching for the killer behind a series of gruesome murders. Made in 1962 this Luckwell production tells the story of an armed holdup in London.
