Mornington Crescent Incident
I was at Mornington Crescent on Saturday afternoon, to find that a large
area to the South (around Harrington Square) had been cordoned off. The policeman "guarding" the barrier said that there had been a stabbing. On leaving to take an alternative route, though, I noticed a Citaro "marooned" inside the area still showing "N29". Had this incident happened on the bus or was the bus just "caught up in events" as it were? -- Ian Jelf, MITG Birmingham, UK Registered Blue Badge Tourist Guide for London and the Heart of England http://www.bluebadge.demon.co.uk |

Presumably it was something serious if it was still cordoned off in the afternoon. looks at other posts So it was. -- Nick Cooper [Carefully remove the detonators from my e-mail address to reply!] The London Underground at War, and in Films & TV: http://www.nickcooper.org.uk/ |
Mornington Crescent Incident
Thanks for the information, everyone. Hope the person concerned makes
a good recovery. I'm doing a guided walk around there one evening next week; I won't be mentioning it but I wonder if I'll be asked? -- Ian Jelf, MITG Birmingham, UK Registered Blue Badge Tourist Guide for London and the Heart of England http://www.bluebadge.demon.co.uk |
