Title: Dont ring cops if you live in the north west...
Post by: Danny on 02 January 2009, 15:33:26
they're ALL at the top of my street!!

not been able to find anything out online or the news as yet, and the police cant tell us anything yet, but rumour has it there's a hostage situation in a house just round the corner and all the surrounding roads have been cordoned off, sky cops are out, and round the corner from me in the other direction there's a congregation of about 25 more police cars, marked and unmarked, tactical aid unit with armed cops there, and medics on standby!

hehehe!

turns out its a hostage situation, houses have been evacuated and there are snipers on the school roof behind the house, its a guy called Craig Unsworth, I went to primary school with him!

there's a reporter there from the sun, and most likely soon all the local ones will turn up, including all the TV stations, so i'm gonna go sort my hair out and put clean clothes on!

there was a hostage situation opposite my mums a few yrs ago in the flats, didnt last long as they shot him  :y :y

Post by: Danny on 02 January 2009, 18:31:05
someone said this guy had been shot but i dont know if its true, still cordoned off, and the PCSO stood there is clearly really really bored!!

i cant be bothered going back out to see if anything's changed!

i'm thinking if someone had been shot and it was finished with, they'd just have the house closed off now and the surrounding streets would have re-opened....

there's still no certainty of the outcome yet, i'm thinkin it's genuinely still going on since the tape's still across my street 6 doors up, but the incedent's about 200 yards further on and around the corner!

Any idea if this is a domestic violence situation or a repossession, just with the news saying a man won't leave the house.

all the police have said is "we cant disclose anything other than that its a major incident"

which is why all the news reports are so sketchy

Which brings us to that old joke "How do you tell when a Wigan girl has an orgasm?"
"She drops her pie."

yeh it all ended at that time, my mates mum said she heard 6 gunshots at the time but i really dont think so

the story says the rumours about the petrol were denied, but the gas had been turned off in the house and still they had the fire crew on standby
