Default 'Hammer-wielding thieves' target Michael McIntyre Car

https://news.sky.com/story/hammer-wi...chool-11395152

[The robbers used hammers to smash the windows of his black Range Rover while he was still inside - with witnesses claiming the 42-year-old was shaken after the incident.]

[No one was injured in the attack, which reportedly happened on Monday afternoon.
The police, who would not comment on the identity of those involved, told Sky News: "The victim was stationary in his car when two males on a moped smashed the car windows with a hammer before stealing property."
McIntyre's publicist Gary Farrow told The Sun: "Michael was involved in an incident involving armed robbers.
"He is absolutely fine and helping police with their enquiries."]



Easy Target

It's awful really as his child was there as well,but I bet he will make some jokes out of it when he gets over the initial shock.

I was shocked to hear and yeah especially when he was in the car with his son . Thankfully they're both ok . Hopefully they catch the thugs !! .

And I was thinking same thing with him being a comedian it probably has given him comedy material,it's kind of like a coping mechanism when something so terrible happens.

Even if you don't like him that's a unnecessary comment and cruel considering his innocent child was there caught in the middle of the terrible ordeal .

Terrible thing for them to do, but how idiotic to leave valuables inside your car? Is he stupid?

They smashed his window while him & his son were in the car I doubt he was being flash just because he has an expensive watch . Maybe that was the only valuable thing he had on him to give these maniacs so they'd leave him and his son alone , horrible crime .

I'd be happy for a judge to make an example of them, and send a message to criminals by locking them up for a minimum 20 years.

It's more likely to be 18 months

I never suggested he was being flash.

I assumed he'd left the watch in the car and they'd smashed the window to get it (hence it being daft to leave valuables in the car) until I saw he was sat in the vehicle when they robbed him.

But even if McIntyre was on his own it's still a horrible thing to happen.
But definitely makes it worse that his son was there , anyway I like McIntyre but even if it happened to someone I dislike I'd still find the whole thing terrible .
