Police erect incident tent outside Albion House
4 comments:
Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
Yes the reason the tent is there because of the following taken from the kentonline website....
ReplyDelete"A man who was found lying injured in a Kent street in the early hours of the morning is in a critical condition in hospital.
He was discovered outside the entrance to Albion House shortly after 2am and was taken to a London hospital where he has undergone surgery on a serious head injury.
The building, at the junction of Albion Place and Wellington Crescent, contains the Mayor's Parlour as well as a number of flats.
The injured man was not carrying any identification and police are now asking anyone who may know his identity to come forward.
He is believed to be in his late teens or early twenties with a muscular build and was wearing a green khaki Ben Sherman waist-length jacket, white striped shirt, blue jeans and white trainers.
He was also wearing a necklace and had a gold stud in one ear.
Kent Police are investigating the circumstances surrounding the incident.
Part of the street was taped off and a forensic tent set up."
Perhaps the poor sod was accidentally bopped on the beezer by a piece of falling masonry. Yet another heritage building that's been allowed to rot courtesy of TDC.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info medico I had wondered if some meeting about local issues had got a bit out of hand, and er Richard I have been reliably informed that the cast iron supports for the balcony at Albion House have rusted badly inside the brickwork, so if you ever find yourself there don’t go out on the balcony.
ReplyDeletemaybe this is the latest move in the removal of Richard Nicholson as leader of the labour group?
