curlykaren Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 At about quarter to five this morning I was taking my son to SELDOC and when we drove past tesco metro at the top of rye lane/bottom of the common, (same side as the rye pub but a couple of hundred yards nearer peckham) there was a man chasing another man with a huge knife. The man being pursued was desperately afraid and trying to get traffic to stop and help him. As a female on my own with a sick four year old there was not much I could do except pull over and call the police. Am really hoping that this situation was resolved without injury and the guy concerned made it home safely. If you are that man or know him and can tell me he is safe I would most appreciated it.

unlurked Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 As you've reported it to the police why can't you ring and ask them for an update? Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/38963-did-he-get-home-safely/#findComment-700325 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dulwich Born And Bred Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 How awful :( Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/38963-did-he-get-home-safely/#findComment-700342 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs TP Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 And it could also have been a scam whereby as soon as you stop to offer a lift, he is no longer being pursued, they are suddenly friends and nicking your car together with the knife being turned on you. You did the right thing but how horrific all round. Hope your son ok.

curlykaren Posted November 30, 2013 Author Share Posted November 30, 2013 Can I ask police? Not sure that is a service they offer but guess if it had turned into something awful they would contact me as witness?? It never crossed my mind could be a scam, how out of touch I am!

shaunag Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 the police wont update you - a man was attacked outside my home and they wouldnt tell me how he was doing for data protection reasons.
