Men attacked as they break up fight in High Street

TWO men were attacked when they tried to break up a fight in Colchester High Street.

A group of men attacked the victims while they were trying to separate others fighting at about 3.15am on Wednesday (August 29).

One man, 23, from Maldon was punched in the face and later required hospital treatment to a cut lip. The second

victim, 19, from Colchester was punched to the back of the head but did not go to hospital.

Investigating officer PC Lee Kennedy said: "The assaults happened outside the Greggs shop in the High Street and the two victims were set upon by a group of other men. We want to hear from anyone who saw what happened or might know the suspects involved.”

  • Anyone who can help should contact PC Kennedy at the Colchester Area Investigation Team on 101 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555111.

Howabout getting off your backside and patrolling our streets PC Kennedy? Can't be much else going on that time of the day, if you are going to give out late licences make sure you monitor the outcome?

It is the councillors who give out the licences.

Yes but it is the police who have the final nod Boris. Lets get back to the old licencing hours and then there will no need for anyone to be in the town centre at three in the morning. Anyone in the town at that time has a 75% of being there for all the wrong reasons.

What an idiot. Maybe PC Kennedy was on duty, but elsewhere. The thin blue line is very thin these days. Or maybe he wasn't even on duty, simply passed this crime to investigate. No matter, useful idiots like yourself would still be on hand to crow whatever he did, if the police did nothing, you would bleat, if they appeal for witness, you bleat.

Here's an idea, if you feel so strongly about it, why not get off YOUR backside, and volunteer as a Special Constable.

Ooh another new name and one that probably sums you up? The blue line is not so thin its just bloody lazy, too many off with permanent sickness and stress of all things what were they expecting when they joined up, oh I know brown envelopes for information? Having been there and done that I think I know more than most about todays force, so back in your box until you can find something to comment on that you do know something about, as there is only one idiot here?

Yup, I doubt very much you are a police officer...or ever have been. Lol.

Never mind, because of ill informed mouthpieces like yourself, you won't have to worry about the police much longer, they'll be replaced by minimum wage, maximum profit companies like G4S.

Then, I suspect, you may actually have something to cry about, petal.

And not sure who you mistake me for, meddler1 has always been my username?

You should phone the police. I think someone has stolen your apostrophe key.
