To the members of the public who assisted the young lady after she had her phone snatched at Goose Green yesterday evening (7pm).


The guy ran past her, taking the phone out of her hand and made off at speed up East Dulwich road towards Peckham Rye. She SCREAMED at such a level that passers-by gave chase, cars tried to block him off.


Next thing you know he was cornered. Ran back in her direction and gave back the phone. Made off down towards Grove Vale but not before a motorist mounted the pavement by the zebra crossing and nearly collared him. He made off up Tintagel Crescent. Great to see.

Exactly Jessie


Many parents on here will have kids who for a short period might end up doing "no good"


I'm pretty sure they would like a knock on the door from a policeman with their offspring intact and a word to be had, not actually maimed or killed

If the police had been called it unlikely the phone would have been returned to its owner as their response time is not going to be that quick. No one actually said this was a 'kid' or that there was any attempt to maim or kill whoever it was.

Alan - several people have posted they wish he had been run over. That is who I'm addressing


Noone has said it was a kid, that's true, but are you suggesting it makes a difference to the support or otherwise - "yeah if it's a young 'un, don't run him over, but if he is say, 25, then go for it"


Like the OP and Otta, I'm glad people stepped in to help and try and apprehend him - but subsequent posts crossed a line

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
