fullscreenaging Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 TWO men were arrested last week in connection with an aggravated at an address on Byrom Street, Blackburn. The armed raiders forced entry to an address, making off a number of motorcycles, quad bikes, and riding kit. I didn’t want to read any further. Poor grammar and spelling and even the lack of proof reading from online journalists is rife nowadays. There is no excuse either as there are simple tools that can used. I’m going on to night shifts tonight and I’m grumpy. Rant over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full of positivity at the start thinking "this shift will be a good one" as often as not the general public prove me wrong 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is hidden behind a lot of this is the intelligence gathering by the police. Sure, they may not drop everything to go look for a single bike that’s stolen, but each report helps build a picture until a pattern emerges, if I may mix my metaphors.

"Mixing metaphors" getting a bit clever now .... I'll stick with getting all my mucking words fuddled! Yes you're right though, Police rely a lot on evidence gathering, I think it's more of a result when they bust an organisation or a ring rather than just one individual for nicking a bike .... I support any Police initiative for catching these tow rags! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
