Police Incident at Tabard House - Murder Investigation

Last night at least 5 police cars and three ambulances were called to Tabard House on Prioress Street (By Bricklayers Arms and the Jam Factory)

The Ambulances left empty after an hour or so to be replaced by seven or so detectives clutching red folders. They stayed til at least 6.00 this morning and a car was taken away by truck. The officers were also wearing blue plastic gloves.

There is currently a WPC on guard....

Wonder what has happened - sounds like a murder?

Sounds like Repo Man to me. Dominic has spotted the laydee aliens with his telescope and called the police, but it was too late because Otto and his gang of punks have taken them away over the pavements on bicycles to safety with their long fingers pointing to the skies.

Seriously though......

It was pretty full on.

Thanks to Dave's tip-off I have been in touch with the Scotland Yard press office. See our news story on this incident:

Thought it was something like that.....

Is "Tabard House" the Victorian former school now converted into apartments?

The police statement described it as the Tabard Centre, which is the converted school

Yup that's the one, just opposite the tower block on Bricklayers Arms

I just walked past the building on my way to the recycling containers and there is still police on the premises.

is it affecting traffic flow in the area Maurits?
