JoeJoe Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 I have just been sat in Broomhill eating some chips on a wall on Newbold Lane at 1.50pm in broad daylight and have witnessed four white guys break into a car and steal the radio. They then proceeded to walk past me and kick a van obviously high from the fact that they have got a car radio. I could not help myself but to stare at all the four guys who then asked me what I was fxxxxxg looking at and if I had a problem. I kept staring at them all the way up the road until out of site and then walked to the car that they had just robbed to take the registration number so I could report it to the police. I then walked back to work to ring the police and someone said ring 101 as it is not an emergency. I have now been trying to ring this number for the last 1hour and 15mins but it is engaged. I have then got fed up with this and thought I will ring Broomhill police station only to be greeted by a taped message saying I can ring another number and leave the details of this crime on an answering machine. I dont know about you but I feel extremely stupid talking to no-one and trying to get my point across to no-one. Everyone I have spoken to about this has said theres no point ringing as nothing will happen to them anyway which is probably true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeJoe Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 I know thats what one of my colleagues said but I am five months pregnant and running fast at the moment can be quite a problem. But I could have kicked myself that I did not think of this sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenH Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 You should, without question, have rung 999, and not 101. This is a case where a prompt response would result in cacting criminals so 999 is the correct numbers to call. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meumeu77 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Should have rung police,taken a picture of them doing it.noone is going to attack a 5 month pregant woman. anything is possible. Besides not all pregnant woment look pregnant at that stage. I'm 5 month pregnant too and people at work only noticed when I told them! You were brave enough to stare at them for so long, don't know if I'd done the same. I would have tried and reported it though as you did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
