A woman said she has been left traumatised after police burst into her flat searching for a man she has not spoken to for nine years.
Meg Le Chalmers, 25, was sound asleep in her flat in Roosevelt Way, Colchester, at 7.30am on Saturday when her sister woke her because there was loud banging at the door. Seconds later, police burst through the front door smashing it from the hinges.Whew! I thought for a moment I was going to read that they'd smashed her back doors in!
Miss Le Chalmers said: “My sister woke me up saying ‘What is that banging at the front door?’
“We didn’t know what was happening. We thought it might even have been the postman.”Blimey! Postmen are hardcore in that neighbourhood!
She plans to make an official complaint against Essex Police and says the incident has triggered her anxiety and post-traumatic stress disorder conditions.One wag in the comment section has the perfect rejoinder:

The filth batter down a woman's door and find her undressed: you seem to think there is something amusing about this. You need help.
ReplyDeleteIt's always a matter of time but Senility will collect bloggers.
ReplyDeleteBecause it's the innocent woman who deserves the kicking here?
ReplyDelete"...you seem to think there is something amusing about this. "
ReplyDeleteShe'll have form longer than Red Rum. Would you like this creature as a neighbour?
"It's always a matter of time but Senility will collect bloggers."
You've got a long wait. Better settle in.
"Because it's the innocent woman who deserves the kicking here?"
I admire your assessment of the likely situation here. It's like trying to puzzle out how an alien species thinks.
