Does anyone know what was going on this morning around Hunters Bar? The police had cordoned off some of Eastwood Road (nr Hickmott) with biohazard tape! And i saw a fire engine (which i later found out went to Penrhyn Road) and two paramedics on their way up Ecclesall Road this morning.

Any clues??

Hey I saw the Biohazard tape and heard lots of sirens too.. Sadly I dont know much about what was going on..

How serious does an incident have to be to cordon off a road? And what kind of chemicals would require a Biohazard marker??

Read the fron t page of this evenings star.
A house that was thought to be empty was on fire - it turns out that the ENTIRE house was a weed growing factory and the hydroponics gear had started a fire.

There was a rape/attempted rape at 2am yesterday morning on the bit of grass opposite the Wycliff church. I asked one of the policemen when I walked past just before lunch. Not seen anything about it in the news or anything.

Yep just seen this on the afternoon news. A girl walked from Elif's down Hickmott Road and was chased then grabbed and pushed to the ground. It said 'serious sexual assult'.

I purchased a copy of the star last night too - just for the front page - the expression of the male police officer was a treat!!!! :lol:

Oh my god that's so scary - I used to live right opposite that bit of grass. Used to hear funny noises from there - people shouting etc but it was usually just drunken people getting rowdy.

That's really shocked me.

As for the Penrhyn Road thing - I bought the Star as well just for the picture! I know people who live on there and didn't know anything about it though :roll:

Rumour has it that it's 'fallout' from the carpet recently removed from the middle room of the lescar whilst 'renovating' :hihi: :D
