held for 13 hours for defending him self
 

this is off the rsv forum, exact quotes from the blokes post's. Whats your take on this

Got burgled about 3 -4 weeks ago. So tonight i'm watching the television and three teenage kids (aged approx 17) burst through my back door and start threatening me. All wearing hoodies and sweatshirts pulled up over there faces. Anyway they made the mistake of letting me stand up (d.ckheads) and I picked up the 18in monkey wrench I had leaning against the wall after the last episode. Gave one of them a GOOD crack with that and they ran like fook. Got no chance of catching them with a gimpy leg but beginning to think I've been targeted. Sitting here on the computer now because I'm wary about going to bed. Little sh.ts!


Hello again guys! Well I've just spent the last 13hrs in a police cell having been arrested for suspected ABH. They have no complainant and no victim. During the 13 hrs I was offered no washing facilities so smelt pretty much like a badger's bum, I was offered no food and was only given two cups of tea. So who exactly was the victim. Incidently I do have a PIR light and the only reason I don't have a dog (love them) is because I don't have a car so don't think it's right to abandon it every time I go out. Even worse if I go away 4 the weekend. I personal do not think I did anything wrong, but apparently I am supposed to politely ask the little d.ck heads to leave. Well it might have worked - my fault I suppose for not trying Anyway, The police took my big fook off spanner so I've had to replace it with a big fook off extending wheel wrench. Welcome to my parlour said the spider to the fly

How did the police know about him giving one a crack with the spanner?

Unsurprising TBH
But there's more to this particular tale than meets the eye.

Probably because he's blabbed it on an open forum.

He cant just say "I had a big wrench sitting there incase it happened again". That shows he had intent to use it as a weapon. Not just defending himself with the nearest object at hand.

i think some one phoned it in to the police.

Agree and agree!!

Re: held for 13 hours for defending him self
 

i also agree just very odd, also how can you be held for 13 hours with no food ?

ever stayed at a Travel Lodge before?

But TBH defending your own home should be rewarded not punished. Prepared defenses or not.

I have intent of using reasonable force as allowed by the law to defend my home if anyone breaks in, if they fall down the stairs 2 or 3 times that's not my problem is it. It's a steep driveway ;)

I don't believe that for one minute. Perhaps he refused it?? They wouldn't have given him cups of tea if they didn't offer him food!!
