Default Glass on Stephen Lawrence memorial...... and ???

SERIOUSLY!! I mean, a little disrespectful if intentional, but did a member of the public REALLY phone the police to report broken glass on the pavement in that area after a Saturday night!

Smacks of the Police being damned if they do, damned if they don't.

If they don't 'investigate' it they'll probably be accused of being 'institutionalised racists'....

But yes, some seriously stupid public out there.

I totally agree in that respect. The call was made, they have to act, but seriously the people that call that sort of thing in......

It's been targeted 3 times in 20 years and it has it's own CCTV? WTF! My house has been vandalised more than that plaque.

another example of excellent police work.

well done boys! lol

altho agree, dammed if they act, dammed if they dont.

some people need to have a serious fcking look at themselves - if it bothered them that much, go and sweep up the glass yourself - do something for your community.

should have been copper turns up and says, 'yep smashed bottle, i'll get council to comw and clear glass up. Did anyone see it happen? No, ok afraid nothing i can do.' job done, case closed.

Considering they just give you a crime number over the phone when your car get broken into and don't even come to look then an investigation is way ott.

I do think its an awful waste of their time, and needed a road sweeper rather than a response car, but I guess it all would have been on CCTV, so they prob looked at that, recognised the face, and knocked on their door lol.

Remembering that one or two of the original lads is about to go back on trial for the murder, so I guess there will be some negative feeling towards the situation again now.

Fair play to the police for dealing with it though
