All I’m saying is that this is the first time in a while the news has shown a picture of the offender of knife crime.
Maybe our police do need guns.
That guy has a moustache!
They had an abundance of caution and shock running through their systems.
UK is 198th out of 203 countries for deaths by sharp object. Were almost the safest in the world.
Data comes from 2019
Monaco is the safest for knife crime although you are more than 10 times more likely to be shot in Monaco than you are in the UK using deaths per 100k population as a measure.
The UK and London are very safe even with the media using terms like Gun Chester or Knife Capital.
Look at how scared they are, this is shameful, this needs to change, the wrong people are police the streets, I will always say this
😂😂that police officer was using his colleague as a shield
Usual suspects. Apparently… 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Not a single gun drawn. USA. Take notes.
Did the house next door have a door cam?????
Is he an immigrant
Kids, this is why you shouldn't take magic mushrooms whilst watching Akira Kurosawa's Throne of Blood.
Didn't parry the tasers? Skill issue
The uk police look scared.
Why is the maniacs face covered up? 😡
My heart breaks for the family of that young lad who was just going to school 😢😢😢😢 and that maniac murdered him …😡😡 life is so meaningless to so many these days….
The police are also restless due to some crime.😢😢😢
TAZER??? IS THAT IT?
if this was america and on police activity yt channel he woulda got 30 bullets
You must be insane to stab a 13 year old. My condolences to the parents of the boy ❤ (I live near Bancrofts and I seriously can’t believe this happened) so vile honestly
I like the one who kept tucking her hair behind her ear.
We need a first amendment law in the UK. The police having to defend themselves against armed criminals with a bat and a fly zapper, and ordinary citizens left completely helpless…… Ridiculous state of affairs.
Police took about all the words I would have said to my X. 😅
Goku, Ethan Hunt, or Jackie Chan could've saved my 14 Yr old brother from dying
Female officer had no fear.
We finally have his name and surprise surprise it’s another foreign 🐀, which we already knew because if an attack is ever done by someone British you get their name pretty much straight away
I have absolutely no doubt this will be yet another‘diminished responsibility’ BS case
Only d lady cop, showed any bottle.!!
Another foreigner. Ffs.!!
Another foreigner. Ffs.!!
Another foreigner. Ffs.!!
He is a white Christian so not a terrorist.
That little girl all alone. Tazers don't always work.What bravery. Heartbreaking that these youngsters put their lives at risk for us. Care in the community actually means death in the community.
Nobody want to touch the suspect they are on a panic mode.. lady cop is the Boss.
I heard about that on Channel 4 in my home country Ireland 🇮🇪 yesterday afternoon. That man must have gone completely mad. Everything has caused the MADNESS!
Criminal: I have anime on my side!
Police: Do't fakking moov!
that's why UK police need's to carry a handgun and not use the baton as a weapon
the woman cop was on it
Uncoordinated police officers!
DONUT
At least he is not a terrorist! 😊
How convenient …… almost like a scene shot for a film
You guys realize guns exist right?
He's just showing off and wants attention.
