Default Pizza delivery cyclist slashed by 3 youths in Weston knife-point robbery

Do YOU know the chavs behind this cowardly attack?
Anyone with information is urged to call 101, quoting 44190393689 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

QUOTE:

A PIZZA delivery cyclist was slashed by a teenager carrying a knife while out working at night in Southampton.

Father-of-four David Bailey was targetted by three youths demanding he gave over his money, while he cycled along Drayton Close, Weston.

According to David, one of the youths, who are all believed to be in their mid-to-late teens, "swiped" through David's coat and left him with a cut to his arm.

He said he came round the last corner of the street and found his path blocked by the three boys.

David, who is in his mid-forties, said: "They blocked my path and demanded I give over money.

"I only carry very little cash on me anyway and regularly give in cash deposits at work.

"I was trying to get the money out, but as we have bum bags under our coats, I had to undo the coat to get the bum bag.

"He slashed through my coat, as if to tell me to hurry up. I moved back, but he swung and left a small cut on my arm.

"I still have a scar and the jacket, with a rip down the arm."

He added: "It was a small amount they took, which was £18 or £19, but it was a robbery and they did get away with it.

"I went back to the store and told them what had happened. I then spent four hours in the police station giving a statement - I didn't get home until 1.30am."

David, who used to work in the cleaning industry, said the incident happened at around 8.30pm.

"It was a smallish pocket knife, about three or four inches.

"It was a bit scary - you don't expect to be attacked or stopped from going anywhere."

David returned to work the following day, but has since been spending most of his shifts in the Dominos store, along Weston Lane.

All delivery staff have been issued with body cameras.

Although David said the incident was a robbery, police said it was an attempted robbery and have released an e-fit of one of the youths.

A spokesperson for Hampshire Constabulary said: "The first is described as being white, slim, around 5ft 8ins tall and wearing a black hoodie; this is the boy in the e-fit.

"The second is also described as being white, around 5ft 8ins tall and wearing a hoodie.

"And the final boy is described as being white, of stocky build, around 5ft 6ins tall and wearing a distinctive black jacket with a red chevron on the back and dark jeans.

"Do you recognise the e-fit or perhaps know someone with the same jacket described above?"

That's standard police practice now - it's not a crime until they've
solved it.

So when I had a laptop stolen they wouldn't accept a report of theft
only 'loss', as I hadn't seen a bloke with a sack labelled 'SWAG' make
off with it. Actually they did recover it (about 18 months later,
from an 'address known to police'), and then suddenly it did become
stolen, I assume because 'recovered stolen property' is a better thing
in their statistics than merely 'found'.

And when I was rammed by a car after the driver screamed abuse at me
and gestured obscenely it was a traffic 'accident', not a deliberate
assault with a deadly weapon.

I had thought that nothing was a crime until they've solved it and it
can go straight in the 'solved crime' statistics, but this case
illustrates that if three thugs slash you with a knife and make off
with your money even the police can't avoid the conclusion they might
be naughty boys. Quite how slashing you with a knife and taking your
money is only an 'attempted theft' I'm not sure, but hey, I'm sure it's
better in the statistics.

regards, Ian SMith

I sent the police a video of a motorist driving through a NO ENTRY sign almost hitting me head on as he broke the law and they just gave him a ticking off.

Didn't he once proudly post a link to a video which showed him cycling
"through a No Entry sign"?

He apparently was a serial offender who could not be bothered to go around the block, so he habitually ignored the NO ENTRY sign on a daily basis as he left work. I did my civic duty in reporting him to the relevant authorities.

With evidence.

Yeah. Simon is a real tough "man". He did say that he is now claiming state
benefits after jumping off that bridge. The bridge where his life was saved
by a driver not driving over him and killing him. Yet, he continues to slag
off drivers. Typical psycholist.

Get a life, big tough grass that you are.
Tell us how much money the tax payer is giving you for your failed suicide
attempt.
As for your civic duty, think of that bridge. Where was your civic duty
then?

There's a reason why people try to commit suicide. Most people

understand the reason. To blame someone for doing it, is cruel.

Knickers! Where was Simon's "civic duty" when he chucked himself off that
bridge into the path of oncoming traffic? He did not care about the drivers
who may of hit and killed him, yet he spouts about his "civic duty" in
reporting drivers! The driver who may have killed him will have to live that
for the rest of his life. Think about that Bod.
