Channel 4 News - gang crime

Channel 4 News is screeing a feature right now on gang crime in South London. One talking head was framed against Metro Central Heights.

Oh blimey. And I was almost looking too...had it on but was making coffee.

The report can be seen here. Some of the interviewees were filmed on the Heygate, overlooking the Volvo garage/Oakmayne site.

Thanks James so much, gosh what a piece. Terrifying.

A woman tried to commit suicide by jumping from that block (Swanbourne) yesterday morning. My next door neighbour's grandchildren were calling at one of their friend's flats in the block and she fell past them as they watched. The youngest is only three and he was in a terrible state. Luckily, his 12 year old brother had the sense to bring him straight back to "Nannies" rather than stand and watch. The poor woman didn't die immediately and was apparently conscious when the paramedics arrived. Poor thing.

I've just been told that the poor woman didn't jump but was pushed. She died on the way to hospital. May she rest in peace and the person who murdered her live forever in torment.

Blimey. How awful.
