Six or seven cop cars, armed police on the street corner, an ambulance and several dogs. They've either cornered an armed robber/terrorist or found the Cup Final money

Was problems in that neck of the woods last week (I think). Some bloke roaming around the woods with a machete.

Oh that's why the helicopter is circling. Interesting start for the new students moving in to the area.

I'm more surprised that The Argus managed to get the story published within three days of the incident than it actually happening.

Typical police overreaction - bringing a helicopter to a knife fight.

Note sure why you'd think that?

Possible scenario: attacker stabs someone and runs off, using people's back gardens to avoid capture - stab victim dies, so becomes a murder case - cops on the ground can't find / catch murderer.
But, guess what, the chopper above can track [almost] his every move and guide ground forces to capture said murderer.

Can't imagine anyone seeing this scenario as an over-reaction - unless you happen to be an eye-witness and know it was hand-bags not knives ....

Hmmm .... I suspect you've not seen Sussex Police in action. Let's take about a year ago in Southwick, someone throwing their stuff out of their flat window. About 20 police plus armed units and a dog unit turned up. Ended up that it was someone being evicted yet it took the police nearly 4 hours of road closures to determine this and that there was no threat to anyone else ( bar possibly the bailiffs. ). There are loads of other examples as well.

I think its called Humour, its a saying thats been altered to fit the incident I think they call it a "joke"

Rumour on the street (a Coldean street obviously) is that someone has been found who’d been imprisoned by someone else for a year or so in a domestic situation. I’m really not sure if there is any truth in it at all though.
