Half-Mona..?

A man killed in a street stabbing was attacked by a group of between 12 and 20 men, police said tonight.
Any clues to who they should be looking for?
Officers who were called to an incident in Holloway, north London, last night found Andrew Jaipaul, 21, from nearby Finsbury Park.

The victim died at the scene, a Scotland Yard spokesman said. The incident happened near Andover House in Andover Road shortly before 10.20pm.
Oh. Well, half a clue is better than none, I suppose.

This half MONA seems to be becoming more common, along with things like leaving out any description, but then saying 'officers from Operation Trident are investigating' So we can all go 'Ah right we get the picture'

However in the thumbnail they still used the old 'white hand holding a switchblade stock photo

Jaipaul you say? Nope, left struggling there.

Just an idea off the top of one's head - it may help to publish those baseball cap pics produced by South Wales police photo-fit team.

Somewhat OT: this throws a spanner in the works of someone I'm sure

Oh, indeed. I always like that one.

"Another Half MONA this time from the BBC of all places "

He wanted her tights? Was he planning to rob a bank?

"Somewhat OT: this throws a spanner in the works of someone I'm sure "

Oh, boy! That'll provide a few anguished CiF columns I suspect...
