Now if there is any truth to this: I'm sure the young man's parents (?? mother who didn't care - makes you wonder why - but wonder if she will care if there's a buck to be made through a claim - and father not seen for years?) (or he himself) will be raising a complaint with the police who apparently blatantly refused to help provide him with any form of assistance whatsoever, instead, telling him - allegedly - he was old enough to survive.

One other thing : seeing as he was visiting his pal - he arrived at the house then .... coz remember, he didn't have a mobile so would only have found out about his mate being robbed and his mate's flat being smashed when he actually arrived there.....

Where did the 'mate' stay then..... did he vanish into thin air?
Why are you asking me?...Ask the truth it's his OP i'm sure he will clarify things for you.

yeah see your point, but im not that type of person to get hype out of things. i wouldnt sell a story to the press for all the tea in china. im a profoundly moral person, outspoken, but moral. that doesnt get compromised for anyone.

a guy told me a great story once outside a takeaway as i was about to go in, just down from the local train station that he and his girlfriend where living in a railway hut and they had nothing! he aked me for 20p,me takeing pitty on him and having a few quid i gave him about six pound in change.
the next week i saw that little bastard pulling the same line on some one else and came into the takeaway to change up about 40 pound in change into notes.

I thought if someones house had been broken into the general thing for the police to do is take fingerprints/photos etc and then board the place up until windows etc can be replaced? Not kick the person out of their own house. Thats what happened when my mates got broken into anyway :S

I don't believe I asked you specifically - my first paragraph referred to you specifically reference the post I'd quoted.

The spacing then determined subsequent paragraphs commenting in general on the situation - such is how it works - raising general thoughts about the scenario being played out to us.

Yes, I can see by your moral outrage here on this thread, that you aren't the type of person to get 'hype' out of things.

Well this was some years ago, maybe the police just get sick of dealing with endless breakins now and dont follow the protocall or something. Wouldnt surprise me, what with judges praising burglars for being brave and that, thus encouraging more burglaries

I'd have said the same thing - kicking them out and leaving them on the streets to fend for themselves without a by or leave - it sounds like a cock and bull story. Not saying it is: I'm saying it sounds very much like it.

I still want to know where the guy the 18 year old was visiting, vanished to!

I would assume he went to a friends/parents house

But if my mate had travelled 30 miles to come visit me...and this happened, I sure as hell wouldnt just abandon them in the middle of the night with nowhere to go. Im sure wherever this other guy went they could have accomodated both of them...needs some new friends IMO :joker:

Sarcasm is the lowest for of wit. Chatting here, is totally different from naming and shaming in national newspapers. grow up.:nono:

Its not a cock and bull story its the truth. I know the addresses, I know the exact locations, the driver drove past the flat which had broken windows. he was sat outside the police station and he spoke to the 101 police call centre. they refused to offer any help whatsoever.

Unless of course, there was no friend, no break in at all .... and he was chancing his arm trying to get a free lift home.... pulled this fable and someone fell for it. After all, he claimed to have no idea how he was going to get back home the next day.......



So OP: this happened 'recently'. I take it this respectable, upstanding, decent young man did indeed contact you the next day as you had requested (which phone did he use?), and ensured that he repayed you and your hotelier friend back?.......

no the story was true. the windows were smashed in. he didnt ask for money at all. the police refused to help the driver attended the police station, he also rang the 101 with the young bloke and he passed the flat.

It pains me to admit this: but I'm with you on this one - either that or the OP is - but for the sake of a good story - I'll go with the young lad.

And this young man's mate that he was visiting: where did he disappear to then?

the hotelier gave him the room for free. we gave him a fiver. it wasnt make believe. he was stranded on the streets for hours in the pouring rain. 30 miles from home. at 18 you dont always plan ahead. his plan was stay in his mates for the night, then the next day work out how to get home. not sure what happened to the bloke in the flat after he went to give statements to police station

It wasnt bullsh** my driver drove past the flat in question. its a rough part of the town, the windows were smashed in. he was stood in the rain and the driver spoke to the 101 people who flatly refused any help at all, as did the police. the story is 100% true.
