Attempted burglary in The Gardens on Saturday night

[moz200]

Hi,

Just before going to bed on Saturday night at about 10.30pm, I noticed a group of three youths wearing black hoodies hanging around, looking very suspicious. I watched them for a while then noticed two entering someones back garden while the other one kept watch by the railings of the gardens. They were obviously looking around to see if they could gain entry into someone flat.

They then moved further up the road. I called the police at this point, and when the police car entered the gardens they all split up, and one ran down the road, confirming that they were up to no good. To my amazement, the police car drove right past them. The police office then called me back, and asked me if I had seen where they went, which I had, as one walked very calmly down towards the Peckham rye. A few moments later a few more police cars turned up, and started circling the gardens, and they were then joined by a police dog, which was lead throughout the gardens area. I don't know if they managed to catch up with the youth I saw walking down towards the Rye, but a police car did stop down there for some time with it's flashing light on. I didn't hear anything else from the police.

Anyway, be vigilant people.

The comment from Falcao is probably the most dated, and facetious comment I have ever read on the EDF.

Perhaps "Falcao" can explain what "The East Dulwich" is ???

Isn't that an ITMA "joke"?

Am I the only one tiring of Falcaos fairly constant random and frankly rather tiresome "puns"?

I don't want to seem like a misery guts, bit of brevity doesn't hurt but the umpteenth time round, it just ain't funny.

How about saving it for the Lounge?

(Prepares for witty pun based retort)

Thanks for the post Moz200; always good to hear about crime thwarted and about the police response.

Oh dear lord, thank you Damo - I thought it was just me!
