Broken windows around Union Street area

Completely agree Karen, I think there's more chance of it being a nutcase than a kid... i mean in regards to those mugging people...they are acquiring something to sell on or to keep for themselves. Bricking windows isn't doing anyone any favours.

There used to be a nutter that walked round coin street area ripping window wipers off cars for no apparent reason other than he was extremely drunk/drugged.

I have heard it was the squatters in retaliation to locals complaining about them, again not sure how true this is.

In that case, it's gossip, isn't it?

I heard it was a gang of developers and city cronies looking to out the locals... on bikes..., on the pavement, 'course I could be wrong.

Had a wonder around the area this afternoon and found 5 broken windows on the estate off Pepper Street, 3 in the small terraces opposite Jerwood Space, 2 at The Crown and 2 at Styles House. Don't believe it is a local grievance as the properties are too far apart, but I hope the police have put surveillance on the streets before it escalates and someone gets hurt.

Hmm, messed up the punctuation on that one.

No broken windows at the crown?
another pub maybe Karen?

Ah, the pub opposite Jerwood Space.

Munchies on Marshalsea Road had a boarded up window as well this morning.

All this within 1\2 mile radius and going on for nearly 2 months. Anyone fancy a stake out? Only joking of course..
