We have a new solicitors in the hood. I tried to snap the sign but it's too bright!

It's just up from the Hart - Montas Solicitors. Might be useful for some.

Topic: Incidents of note

On Sunday, February 7, at approximately 19:00, police were called to a report of a shooting outside the Brixton Food and Wine shop in Tulse Hill, SW2.

On arrival, it became apparent that a moped carrying two persons had approached a group of males standing outside the shop. The pillion passenger had disembarked and chased three members of the group. Several gunshots were heard.

One of the shots apparently struck one of the chased males, a 20-year-old from the Tulse Hill Estate, in the leg. The victim made his way to a nearby friend's flat, to which ambulance crews were subsequently called and dispatched. The male was transferred to hospital and, following treatment, discharged at midnight into the care of his parents.

The male refused to engage with police; however, intelligence suggests the incident is gang-related. The incident was captured on CCTV and enquiries to establish the identities of those involved are ongoing.

Please do contact me or my staff office if you have any questions or wish to discuss any further aspect of these incidents with me.

Bloody hell. Seeing that is really quite shocking. I've walked past there twice a day for nearly the last ten years on my way to work.

Chances of catching anyone have to be pretty remote if even the victim doesn't want to say anything.
 
Today my daughter told me an air ambulance landed at her school on leigham vale. A man had allegedly stabbed himself and was in a bad way. We did see drops of blood on the pavement walking back. Poor sod.

Yeah - I saw all that. It happened just as year 1 were leaving to do their sponsored bike ride/scoot/run, so they had to turn around and go out the other entrance. It was sobering later on to see the blood drops on the pavement. He was a young guy. Very sad.

Oh gosh. That's awful.

Also didn't realise you and I were at the same school!

Oh gosh, that's terrible. We were at Hillside today after school and it was a lovely afternoon, then scootered back along Leigham Vale. I didn't see any blood drops but I guess they were up near the school. Poor guy. Did he survive?

I saw you at Hillside and said hello but you were deep in conversation. The blood was just between the school and the railway bridge so you wouldn't have passed it.

My friend who saw it unfold said he was still standing when she saw him but wasn't looking great. Covered in blood - obviously.
 
If, like me, you've ever found yourself on Station Rise wondering where on Earth you might buy a coffee, you'll be pleased to know that the empty kiosk next to the station is being made into a new coffee bar. Just what we've needed for so long!

Noticed that the other day :)

Which reminds me: has Lazy Rhubarb gone under? Went past last Thursday and it looked both distinctly closed and devoid of furniture :hmm:

yes I was going to ask the same - also passed it on Thursday and it did look as you describe. I've only been in there once ever so it could have been closed for ages and I wouldn't have noticed.

Oh no, I didn't see you at all - sorry!
 
No we don't know him. Nothing to do with the school. He was young apparently and just stood near the school stabbing himself repeatedly in the chest. A lady whose children go to the school saw him from her flat and called the services.

It must have been really serious for an air ambulance to be called.

On a related subject, I don't use the station very often but I still can't remember a single time when I've seen that Exquisite Caribean restaurant right by the station entrance open. Presumably it's no longer in business?
 
The White Hart is having it now. Possibly the best night ever. Packed. Great music. A fiddle player. Free food. Loads of people. A huge fucking turnout like I have never seen here. Soon they will be turning people away. It is that packed....and a young lad just started playing his fiddle...

Don't worry - I didn't want to interrupt, you looked like you were having an interesting conversation. Saw the kids running around too - looking so grown up! It was lovely there today. Bring on the summer!

It was lovely - one of those great Hillside days when there's loads of kids from the school and parents. Looking forward to many more.
