Be careful in Dulwich Park

[Rockets]

Local schools are warning parents to be aware that yesterday afternoon there was an attempted robbery of school children in Dulwich Park where the assailants showed knives and an imitation gun. Luckily the robbers were interrupted by a member of the public and the children left unharmed but apparently there will be an increased police presence around the park for the next few days and anyone who sees anything should dial 999 immediately.

School children are being warned to avoid the park for a few days and told not to have phones or ear buds on view whilst in the park.

It is clear that the park is being targeted so everyone please keep your wits about you and let's hope these idiots get arrested soon.

Thank god for the member of the public, and that no one was harmed.

I wonder if crime is going to rise exponentially in the midst of the cost-of-living crisis. I suspect it already is.

Erm, we are talking about criminals targeting school children here, in Dulwich Park? It's got nothing to do with the cost of living crisis.

I visited my local supermarket around 5.30pm this evening and whilst choosing some bits, noticed three youngsters coming in, hooded up and devil masked. All wearing the latest designer clothing. Could tell they were looking for trouble due their language etc. but they couldn't have been older than 14 years old and then proceeded to trash and try to steal stuff from the shop.

Luckily the shop manager stood up to them (to great threat to himself) and they ran away.

Where are the parents of these youths?
