While walking home from work at 5:30 this evening on Barry Rd I was randomly kicked in the back , fell to the ground straight on my head . Badly hurt .

I got up and it was a young girl on her own aged between 18 to 20 years old . She had run across the road and fell over after kicking me . I shouted out what did you do that for ? She ran back over too me (where my bag was on the ground) and said "what you f.......g wanna go do ya . " I kept repeating no I want to know why you done thet. She kept asking if I wanted to fight and was getting very aggressive so I slowly walked away from her fearing what she might do . She did not try to take anything from me . And my bag was on the ground so very easy to just grab . She walked off in the direction of Peckham Rye park and could of easily turned down Sylvester Rd . A mum and her child kindly saw what had happened and asked if I was ok . So thank you if that was you . Touch wood . I am .

I was around 10 doors away from home . So got in and phoned the police .

The girl was around 5 ft 7 wearing grey tracksuit bottoms and a black hooded puffer coat . No make up and of mixed race.

Unprovoked attack . No reason . Do not understand why .


Please be careful .

I know of at least one person (a friend) who was attacked in error - a case of mistaken identity - someone else entirely was the intended victim of the attack, my friend was just dressed similarly - the intended victim had previously (and very recently) injured the attacker. Makes it no better for the actual victim of course, but a mistaken attack may be (slightly) less worrying than a completely random one.

This sounds awful Karen, I do hope you are recovering well today? This sort of random attack isn't unheard of and there could be any number of reasons, mistaken identity, alcohol, drugs perhaps even mental illness. Whatever the reason, the most important thing is that you reported it.


Louisa.

Thank you everyone .


Kind words . I do hope it was something like a mistaken identity as I don't have any enemies . I'm a local primary school teacher and have been for years . Seeing the dr today . Feeling a bit sore . Feeling a bit vulnerable too .


Thank you everyone I hope they catch her .


Karen

Thank you everyone .


Really makes one feel better hearing all of your kind thoughts and messages , didn't realise how much this has actually helped me to recover easier .


The police are visiting me tomorrow , hopefully they was able to catch the disgusting human being who done this to me. I will be in touch .

Thanks again to all Of you.

Karen. Xxxx

    • It took the Tories 14 years to dig that 20bn blackhole. It's taken Labour 14 months to double it.  You cant get rid of Reeves though because the next person will actually be totally incompetent. There are no MPs in Labour capable of performing better than the current shower.
    • Thanks P. That sounds like a bargain compared to other horror stories I've heard! 
    • DD, "Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃" At least the economy and unemployment weren't in the mess they are now. What is it, give the public sector a whopping pay increase with no strings attached, double the black hole and then blame it on the last Govt. Give me strength. Rachel from accounts shouldn't be anywhere near the economy. The final straw was increasing employer NI contributions and look how that's worked out. Month on month both inflation and unemployment have risen. Won't be long before inflation and u/e are exceeding 5%, but guess what, They'll blame Sunak and go.  Lets have a snap election right NOW, then see how poorly Starmer, Reeves and Rainer do. They're already plotting to get rid of Starmer, and if you think its bad now, you ain't seen nothing yet. Oh and did I mention Starmer wanting to stop Freedom of Speech............................................Normal people can see right through what him and co are doing, great at spending other peoples money, him and co don't have = bankruptcy. We'll just repeat the economic collapse that happened in Greece and wasn't it in Italy as well?
    • One of the best of Shakespeare 's plays.  I did Othello for A level. Also seen a number of stage and film versions. Is there any specific aspects of the play that is difficult for your daughter to understand?
