I suppose you're the type of person who would just stand by and watch or even film the event. More people should tackle thesecriminals and go to the aid of those being attacked. Phoning for the police is just time wasting at the time and the perpetartors always get away as well as leaving the victim robbed or hurt or worse. It's up to everyone to go to the aid of innocent victims.

So in the unlikely event of plod catching them first question will be - do you wish to make of complaint of assault.
