Serious accident outside Brixton tube station, while paramedics attend to person in booking hall

[editor]

There's cops and paramedics all around Brixton station tonight, with traffic stopped along a part of Brixton Road and Atlantic Road.

A person was seriously injured outside Marks & Spencers, while paramedics attended to another, unrelated incident inside the tube station.

mrs hatter just came back and said the high st was closed, traffic backed up.

Now rumours of a shooting, I suppose that's inevitable, the stabbing/shooting rumours

Folk being kicked off buses too

Was that you put it on Twitter?

So glad I got a taxi home tonight, or I may still be sitting on a bus

 

[Brixton Hatter]

yes, lots of traffic getting stuck in the back streets...

Just popped out and saw 10 double decker buses trying to perform three point turns outside the Beehive - most amusing.

Looks like they're preserving a serious crime scene outside of M&S, for forensic purposes

Yeah. I did my good deed for the day by telling someone waiting for the 322 outside Argos that the road was closed and they probably needed to walk a bit if they were going to get a bus to Clapham.

No, I'm in a field in Buckinghamshire, I just wondered what had happened.

Motorcyclist knocked down by car outside M&S according to someone on Twitter

Dunno what tube incident is though

 

[shakespearegirl]

I tried to tell peeps at bus stops all the way up the hill there were no buses, but lemming lime they all stayed waiting as I marched on. Why oh why today in the rare day I'm wearing heels. Very sore hot feet now!

I hate that! I always end up having to trot about hither and thither any day I wear heels to work.

Well I hope anyone injured gets sorted but I'm mostly glad I just missed the hassle of having to walk up the road with a lurgy.

Twitter really has become full of utter bollocks, it's a shame, it was useful for a while.

 

[Manter]

Er, rethinking my Brixton/drinking plan. EPT it is....

Damn these people getting squashed/stabbed/whatever and complicating my Friday...

 

[Minnie_the_Minx]

Yes, there's now people saying girl got stabbed. Maybe that's the tube incident. Maybe it's the M&S incident. Who knows. Doesn't sound like a good idea to be down that neck of the woods if you rely on buses though

When was that I must have been unaware ?

it was full of utter bollocks during the riots too, if that makes you feel better

Funnily enough, after the cop told me what had happened, I joked with him that it'll probably be reported as a shooting on Twitter.

Person on bike has become two persons on bike although admittedly the person who wrote that does say "at risk of misinformation"

It was one pedestrian knocked down my motorbike, outside M&S.
