McDonald's shooting teen critical




A teenager is still in a critical condition after he and a friend were shot as they queued in a McDonald's restaurant in south London.

The gunman opened fire on the friends, both believed to be 17, in front of horrified families with young children on Thursday evening.
Police said one victim was shot in the chest and the other was hit in the arm. He is in a stable condition.
The suspect fled the restaurant in Brixton Road, Brixton, on foot.
Violent attack
Detectives said the gunman was seen running down nearby Rushcroft Road and into Saltoun Road, heading towards Railton Road.
Det Con Luis Martinez said: "The venue was very busy at the time of the shooting and those present - including families with young children - were shocked and terrified by this violent attack.
"We have only a brief description of the gunman at present - he was black and approximately 6ft 1in tall - but if anyone saw the incident or the suspect making off, we need to hear from you."
The shooting is being investigated by officers from Operation Trident, which investigates gun crime in London's black community.

Yeah,

I heard someone discussing this on my lunch break today - anyone got anymore info on this?

Well at least it wasnt in the KFC or Rams Roti.

It sounds like another success for Lee Jasper's Operation Trident:

" ... But Operation Trident says the most concerning element now is how it is going to tackle the increasing numbers of young black British men being sucked into a gun culture imported to deprived communities ..." (Trident: Battling gun crime, BBC Online, 13 August 2002)

... and by the way ...

"... It is a nonsense to suggest that low morale is a result of the McPherson report. The Met has risen to the challenges of the report, and has realised the importance of building trust in them from all sectors of the community, if they are to be an effective force. That this is starting to bring results can be seen by, for example, the success of Operation Trident, which is all about the police working with the black community to fight gun crime ..." (Statement by Lee Jasper, London Mayoral Adviser on equalities and policing, following William Hague's speech at the Centre for Policy Studies: 14 December 2000)

... and ...

"... Scotland Yard's Operation Trident seeks to address these fears. More than 200 Met police officers and staff are working alongside the Trident Independent Advisory Group. It has had huge success in removing gangsters and their weapons from the streets and has begun to break down the supposed 'wall of silence' on drugs issues in the black community, my community, whose task now is to convince increasing numbers who are providing information to take the next step of giving evidence in court ..." (Lee Jasper, chair of the "National Assembly Against Racism" and adviser to the Mayor of London, Breaking out of the black 'gangsta' ghetto, The Observer, 17 February 2002)

And of course, something from Mr Rent A Quote:

"Lee Jasper, chair of the Trident Advisory Group, said the black community of London was in a "state of shock".

He said: "It was an extremely frightening, violent incident taking place in one of our main shopping areas.

"Somebody out there knows what happened in McDonalds. I am appealing to all those people to bring themselves forward to provide the police with information."

The gunman is a "deranged and dangerous" criminal who should be put behind bars, Mr Jasper added ..."[/b] (Source)

There was another shooting of a teen in Moss Side this week. More armed and dangerous morons. What are the lessons for these kids? Stick-up is right, who's pulling up these kids for their stupidity?

If I wanted to deal with gun crime, I'd move my azz back to Philly. At least there I can legally buy a gun to protect myself.

"My son said, "That's the way it is, dad." People can come up to you and say, "What you lookin' at?" It's ridiculous.

The feud is increasingly characterised by teenagers exchanging gunshots in the air. A recent police raid in a Peckham home found a Walther PPK pistol and a MAC-10 machinegun. Police are increasingly worried about the flood of weapons in Britain and about some south Londoners being trigger-happy in the face of 'disrespect'.

I'd never say someone "DESERVED"to get shot, BUT if someone ever did, it would be Mr. "hospital in a secret location". he stabbed someone 13 times 2 weeks ago and the boy is still in hospital. As far as i'm concerned, he gets no sympathy from me. live by the gun (OR SWORD) die by it. full stop. My advice to the parents of these boys would be to send their asses back home for a good five years, before they end up in a casket.
