Today my daughter who is 12 (but looks younger)and her friend (same age) were queuing to get into M&S on Lordship lane to get a sandwich at lunchtime (they were doing school work at her friends house on Upland Rd so it is literally across the road). A strange guy behind them made some lewd comments about them and told the girls they had 'potential'. A guy in front of them told the man to go away and he did.


The man is white, around 6 ft tall, short brown hair, brown eyes (she thinks), a distinctive scar on his forehead and he was smoking.


Can anyone else who has has any other incidents today please get in touch with me? I'm trying to see if he was spotted anywhere else where we can grab CCTV footage as it is really important that the police have an image of him.


This guy is right here in our community so please be vigilant and find a way to explain to your kids to be careful.

I live on Melbourne Grove (close to where it meets Chesterfield Grove with M&S at the end) and saw a man matching this description walking around the area this afternoon (around 3.30pm). The police were attending to an incident on Melbourne Grove and were talking to this man already, so I'm sure they will already have his details. Happy to share more information directly with you WryRye so you can contact the police and inform them with what happened with your daughter.

I also live on Melbourne Grove and I know the person you're referring to. I reported him to the police for his behaviour on Tuesday and he also tried to hijack a motorcycle from a delivery driver.

He's been arrested several times since March for various different reasons. As I was walking to Lordship Lane on Tuesday evening I saw him being restrained by 8 police officers outside Lila's Jewellery shop.

I am happy to share the info privately so just sent me a message if you need to.

    • It required legislation to identify the beneficial owners of properties in the UK held by overseas companies - and these still haven't been properly disclosed - ownership of things isn't just a google search away - and to suggest otherwise is not to understand how capitalism works. Unless you (cyclemonkey) do have access to that knowledge and would like to share.
    • "Mysterious owners" 😆  If only there was a powerful search engine at our fingertips to find out such deep secrets.        
    • It's the "due to commercial reasons" line again that is vexing. Last year it seemed, although there was a similar level of objection, that the reasons were commercial - Gala didn't appear entirely prepared to run 3 more events, or more likely didn't have sufficient interest from other promoters / organisers who could 'sub-let' the site as with Brockwell Park (I believe?). This year they appeared more organised, had another year to plan & prepare, to the extent they actually had names for two of the three new events which indicated to me that they had third party promoters / organisers in place.  So yes, it does make you wonder whether the repeated level of objection, combined with the impending elections, led to the council 'advising' that maybe they shelve it again? I'm afraid I can't see the whole extension application just being a ruse to guarantee permission for the 'regular' event. Gala are a commercial venture with ambition - every festival's business plan is to expand, expand, expand, year on year on year. Gala won't give up until they have taken over the whole park for a Summer of Raves, and the mysterious owners are on their yachts counting their ££££
    • Thanks for that. Maybe forthcoming elections have stymied the 7 day request? If Labour get back in, do we think GALA will try with greater success in 2027?
