Police raid on Nigel Road

[Cam123]

Police turned up in numbers this morning to conduct a raid of a house on Nigel rd, next to the "God Bless Hair Salon", to the delight of curtain twitchers such as myself. Guys in the full blue CSI jump suit have been going in and out all day. Police car is now parked outside and the officer says he will be there for the duration The police are being very circumspect about the nature of the investigation, although the officer said rather cryptically that it was to do with a problem within a local comunity of the area. Does anybody have any insider knowledge?

Sorry Cam - when I see a thread with the word Nigel, I get all annoyed with the bus driver chap. At least it bumps your thread.

> to do with a problem within a local comunity of the area

Could it be a local turf war about whether Nigel Road is part of Peckham, or part of Bellenden Village, or part of East Dulwich?

Macroban has it right - I think there is a tug of love over Nigel Road, which enjoys the best of all worlds, being 5 minutes from anywhere you'd want to go in the local area (better still only 2 minutes from the Rye Hotel). It's just a shame that the police have chosen to close the local Triad, people trafficing, crak den which I always found to be very convenient when enjoying a quiet Saturday night in.

They're still there in numbers I see!
