How utterly DEPRESSING!

What, by a gang or something?

I had LBC 97.3 on in the background last night, and heard something about a "Sydenham Road attack outside the Two Half's" on the 10pm news report. So I specifically listened again at 11pm, and heard that it had involved a paramedic and two police officers being injured, so I immediately posted all the details I had heard on here. The current weather is such a massive local media story that, although I've looked at all the relevant news sites (including LBC who reported it), I can't find any further mention of it anywhere. Clearly something must have gone on, can anyone enlighten us?

Could it be the dreaded all day drinkers. Or possibly the clientelle of the establishment mentioned.

Culprits should be hung drawn and quartered.

[Savvy]

don't be so bloody dramatic.

Indeed, although it's disgraceful, it's not exactly a rare occurance. And, no, I don't know anything about the incident.
