Those were my thoughts about witness protection, we are all commenting on mere heresay I know. But I still doubt very much that the police would be there without very good reason.

If you wanted to speak with someone who might not want to speak with you would you wait for days at the front door in a Police car?

Maybe they are concerned about his/her safety?

From what I saw (white lads running up our road with baseball bats and iron bars), the white lads were ready for it as well. Turns out that the white lads were outnumbered and got a hiding. There's been a lot less bother around here since then.

I haven't got a huge amount of sympathy for the white lads because, from what I understand, they were also the same ones who were caught on CCTV smashing the windows of the community centre.

more rumours circulating that it was the asians from the garage that have something to do with the said rape, the garage has been closed for a few days now, still nothing confirmed so still rumour at the minute.

There was no rape the garage was burgled and all the tyres and machines were taken. the garage was close because the owner broke his foot

So that's an end to the speculation.

Albeit over a year after the incident.
