Instead, They Were Booked For Possession Of A Goldfish In A Bag….

Police officers swooped on Danson Park this afternoon after receiving reports of firearms
Oooh! Scary!
…– but they turned out to be toys won at the funfair.
Ah. Maybe not.
The Met Police helicopter was also scrambled to the scene.
/facepalm

Officers from the Air Support Unit stopped and spoke with a group of men with plastic imitation weapons.

They were given words of advice but no arrests were made.


Words of advice?

Threats of summary execution might be a better description of what was said.

As we saw at the Dartford Crossing, when it's something potentially juicy and/or politically embarrassing, suddenly, there's resources galore!
