Police Line at bottom of Danecroft Road

[Emily_S]

Has just been noticed this morning but may have been from sometime last night?

Does anyone know anything about why it's there?

I spoke to a policeman there this morning who said it was an isolated incident involving one family and nothing for the community to worry about. A bit later the whole of Sunray Gardens was shut. Sounds like something sad and horrible but not as scary as it could be.

Yes a dog walker was told to leave the park early this morning due to it being suddenly closed off for an incident.

Well given what was posted, if that was 'gossip' then yes, admin was right to delete it!

[JoeLeg]

No, come on. You posted an allegation of something really serious. This isn't a subject for gossip; you have nothing to back up what you 'heard'. For all admin knows you're making it up. You think it's 'gossip'? You aren't living in an episode of Eastenders!

Also, stuff like that can potentially prejudice future criminal trials. You get that, right?

I'm afraid JoeLoeg is correct, ukalec. A bit of common sense if required when writing gossip on a media, I think you're comparing it with telling someone personally that you heard something and therefore it's fine, a bit of hearsay, idle gossip etc.

What you wrote could be classed as sub judice i.e. you said that someone did something and the influence of the you saying that on a forum could affect the legal proceedings, so the perpetrator can be released "on a technicality" and I'm hoping you don't want that. Anyway, the forum doesn't want that so I've deleted it.

Okay so it was a domestic incident where a father was stabbed multiple time by someone he knew.

Awful.

Now you're sounding like a troll. You know what you know and I know what I know, let's leave it at that and move on.
