We Don't Need The Video...

...the description tells us all we need to know.

Video captured the horrifying moment a woman was stabbed and slashed by a boy with a knife during a high street brawl outside a chicken shop.

Yup, there's all the hallmarks we've come to expect... 

As a crowd of schoolchildren gather and record the distressing incident on their mobile phones, the woman hits the youngster in the face.

In retaliation, the teen pushes the woman back and proceeds to brandish a large knife - slashing her repeatedly before two other boys pull him away. Detectives confirmed a 15-year-old was arrested yesterday on suspicion of grievous bodily harm.

He remains in custody and enquiries are ongoing.

Pimlico's changed a lot, hasn't it? Do you still need a passport, I wonder? 

So, we know that...

Wait a minute! 

One mother told The Sun: 'A lady was arguing with a year 7 girl and nearly bought her to tears. 'Then she started on a year 11 and her arm got sliced. Apparently she was trying to fight this year 7 girl.'

*blinks* 

Detective Sergeant Danielle Power of South Area Command said: 'We understand the concern that will spread through our communities in relation to this horribly violent incident and would like to reassure parents and local residents that enhanced, highly visible patrols will take place at the end of the school day to reassure pupils, their parents and the wider community.'

Ah, of course, the police swing into action after the incident... 

'We continue to work closely with the local school and to support the victim.'

I note, Danielle, you don't specify who you mean by the 'victim' here. We'll see in the next post just what a movable feast that is, these days... 

'We are aware of footage circulating on social media and ask that this is not shared further to avoid prejudicing any future legal proceedings.'

Might as well pop down to Hastings and request that the tide stop coming in while you're at it!
