More low life
i was wondering how long it would take before the scum went out on the hunt
its going to get worse as the weeks go on in lockdown
try and keep your stuff safe people
Time to wire it to the mains
Burglary?
So someone chose the day there was actually any stock in that place????
This could just be a case of someone needing medication to treat a sick child. OR, it could be a low life druggy, caring little for anyone but their own worthless self.
I ‘wonder’ which is most likely?
Needing Medication for a child is very important, but would it warrant smashing into a pharmacist?. 999 could be the answer..
In reality, we don’t know the reason for the breach on the property, until we know, we can’t give an opinion.
Breaking news is often limited information, that’s why most of us comment without knowing the full facts.
Beware of what you read or take part in when it comes to the media…
What the hell is wrong with people? Absolute muppets! Find them cut off there hands let’s go old school! Might teach them something! obviously not the brightest probably just scum drug dealers!!
Teach them what? The difference between ‘there’ and ‘their’?
Petty.
Cant upset the do gooders Doug,those burglars didnt mean it, I had a bad childhood see that’s why I’m scum. Society is weak and scum know that. But if they ever broke in to my house,they would be on the missing person list,and know one would know where they are,cause they weren’t supposed to be breaking in. That’s proper justice.
Iv just ordered and paid for my meds for asthma and migrains online to try and help the NHS by not calling doctors for what i need tines like these every little helps and our NHS need as much help as poss
Not stealing from them like this scum
“Not stealing from them like this scum”
Do you actually read articles before commenting?
It said “Investigations have concluded that no one entered the premises and not items were taken,”
How about putting bear traps inside shop doorways when they are closed, lets give them a reason for needing a plaster. Like it was a plaster they wanted !!!!! Dealers stopped delivering now have they, surely them of all people are not abiding to lockdown. More waste of police time
Noone broke in just some idiot smashed window when they should have been at Home!
” Investigations have concluded that no one entered the premises”
It is possible the wind did this? Maybe door was vibrating?
Sorry to all the drug dealers that I may of offended!
Is this the chemist that was charging £19.99 for a bottle of Calpol disgusting!
No burglary if nobody entered. As they said. So this is criminal damage. . So. More fake news
Until society get their head around how to sort this , and face the fact that there is only one way, but I guess to many do gooders, so the story will never change.
