All Part Of Life In A Big City, Eh, Sadiq?

Tributes have poured in from stars of the music industry to singer-songwriter Talay Riley, after he was stabbed to death in London. Riley, 35, was found at an address in Silvertown, east London, at around 9am on Friday having suffered stab wounds, and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Ah the glamourous life of a singer-songwriter, getting shanked by wannabe gangstas in exotic locales! Does Andrew Lloyd Webber know what fate may have in store?

Still, I’m sure the Met Police have things well in hand…

A man in his 20s was also taken to hospital with multiple stab wounds and remains in hospital, with injuries that are not believed to be life-threatening or life-changing. Three people were arrested on suspicion of murder on Friday. 
A 27-year-old man has been released on bail pending further enquiries, while a second man, 24, and woman, 25, have been released with no further action.

Oh… 

The day after the incident, two men were arrested on suspicion of attempted murder following a large fight in Barking on Saturday night. The incident occurred around 11.20pm on River Road, where three men, aged 28, 23 and 22, were discovered by emergency crews with stab wounds.

Another glamorous locale, another 'benefit of diversity', I have no doubt...
