Watched a stabbing today
 

Posted up last week about young lads smashing a scooter to bits with chains.Just got worse this week.Watched for an hour or so whilst a bloke of about 30 argued aggressivly with a girl of about 20,they were both as bad as each other with there slapping and general behavour.Didnt think much more about it until another bloke and girl appeared outside the workshop,the 2 girls now started fighting,then 1st lady pulled knife from her handbag and stuck itin her just under her left armpit in the rib cage.It was some sort of kitchen knife.They carried on fighting until bloke 1 stopped it.Fortunatly my garage is opposite a ambulance station and he took her there.Then they all just legged it.Police arrived she was taken to hospital with collapsed lung and the police said in a critical condition.I love camberwell cant wait to get back tommorrow,my forecourt is now a potential murder scene.JAY

Sorry to read of your experience. Unless you're making serious bunce down there, now is the time to move to somewhere a little nicer.

ahh lovely camberwell...tis such a picturesque spot :D

horrible news, but i am afraid to say more and more common now.

Nothing surprises me in this area anymore,theres yellow boards everywhere advertising shootings stabbings muggings sexaul assult and any other offence you can think of.The buisness wont survive much longer anyway because all decent people are leaving in there droves.Week in week out customers are coming in saying they are moving if nothing else to get there kids in decent schools.JAY

horrible... you make get interviewed as a witness too...

Camberwell - Windy Miller would turn in his grave :(

The police have already interviewed us,but he already told us whilst the girl who was stabbed could still talk she didnt want to press any charges and had no idea who had done it.she knows who done it and im pretty sure someone will end up getting shot over it.

Not nice. Makes a change from people getting stabbed in their houses I suppose.

Camberwell can be a bit feisty, like most of london. Mind you, Moss Side is the only place I've personally known a carjacking to be attempted, and the scariest place I've been was definitely Chappeltown in Leeds.

Just for a bit of balance. I've spent a lot of time in SE5 and surrounding areas and never had a spot of bother. Peckham's nicer though.

Is that Denmark Hill or Coldharbour lane then?

Were they of ethnic origin?

Just off camerwell new road not far from where the bloke died in the fire bombing of his shop the other day

Racist

It did used to be a bit nicer I think. Hmm.


Sociopath, everyone's of ethnic origin.

Laughable

How is that racist?

Agree, it was merely a question, it may seem that you have issues with race as you were so quick to judge?

Why ask the question otherwise? D'you reckon sociopath is compiling national statistics or something then?

If so, I suggest there are better, more accurate ways to get information on the ethnic origin of violent criminals.

If the idea is to stir up an argument about race whenever crime is mentioned, then it's probably a good way to go.

Mind you, the answer to the question is yes. If S. meant "were they black?" then I don't know the answer.

Actually it was supposed to be a joke.

But it is racist really because it doesn't matter what they were.

they were arguing for a hour in a big group yet police wasnt on the scene before hand?

edit oh wait you meant theyre age.

thats all you ever seem to care about :nono:

I remember that stab as being an expert move from a Dashiell Hammet novel. It was aimed at the heart. Scary!

Or that could be where a right handed person would stab naturally

racist to even ask these days.... :cuckoo: audilover will tell you that. :freak3:


so, where they of 'ethnic origin'?

What do you mean by "naturally"? Do you have something against left-handed people? :nono::mad:



:D

Did you know that some russians were being racist to me once. I was telling them theyre football team was **** so they came back with "white power". I said but im white aswell and they said english people arent white. Funny world eh?

That's plainly ridiculous and horribly offensive. The Russians aren't of Aryan stock like us Germanic folks. ;)

My mate got stabbed 5 weeks ago in the back, punched lung it was rather nasty.

A couple of months ago someone got shot almost opposite my house in High Wycombe, Bucks. We had police on all fours doing finger-tip searchs through our front garden and driveway, under my wifes car and in our wheelie bin!:(
2 different gang members apparently met and one shot the other twice, didnt kill him though.
Welcome to the 21st century:(

Notts is mad for it!!

Have you got any pics of the shooting or stabbing?
Where is this place in England, could make a film/docum..poss a blockbuster hit...

Hi Jay,

I read last week about the scooter and must admit it made me laugh. I also told a number of mates about this and also enquired whether the scooter cultutre was common place across London. No real conclusion as yet.

I've seen a number of replies and wonder how many people actually know the Camberwell / Coldharbour lane area? I'm not too sure I knnow the area either. I've been to a few nice pubs in the area. Done the whole pub crawl from Elephant to Dulwich in fact.

What you have described is not too uncommnon around London. The only difference is that you have reported this where a Newspaper wouldn't have botherd. Lots of cases around london. I'm not really too shocked to tell the truth. I really wonder how people get involved in this stuff to begin with.
