Daniel Radcliffe proved he's just as much a hero as his alter-ego Harry Potter.
The 27-year-old actor rushed to the aid of a tourist who was brutally slashed across the face by moped-riding thugs on Friday in London, the Associated Press reports.
Former police officer David Videcette told the Evening Standard he saw two moped riders attack a man in his 50s with a knife near trendy King's Road in west London. The muggers slashed the man across the face and sped off with his Louis Vuitton bag.
Videcette said Radcliffe was among a group of people who rushed to the man's aid after the attack.
"It was a bit of the surreal moment, I said ‘You’re Daniel Radcliffe’ and he replied ‘I am,'" Videcette told the newspaper. "He was a really nice bloke, a lot of stars wouldn’t have stopped to help."
He added, "The victim was very, very shaken up.”
A spokeswoman for the actor confirmed Tuesday that the "Harry Potter" star had been present but gave no other details about the attack, calling it a police matter.
The situation is still under investigation and no arrests have been made.
