Benedict Cumberbatch Credited With Saving Bicyclist From Thieves

According to UK newspaper The Sun, actor Benedict Cumberbatch recently saved a delivery cyclist from four muggers in London. According to the publication, the 'Dr. Strange' star jumped out of an Uber he was traveling in after spotting the assault. The cyclist was not seriously hurt but the attackers escaped. Uber driver Ma­n­uel Dias, who was transporting Cumberbatch, said of the actor, "He stood there instructing them in the street, shouting, 'Leave him alone'. In a strange coincidence, the incident took place near Baker Street, the fictional home of Sherlock Holmes, who Cumberbatch portrays on the hit BBC show 'Sherlock'.
