Crime on the streets of London, not reported by the BBC or taken seriously enough by the Metropolitan Police

This London Standard report https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/hero-shop-owner-fights-off-100-youths-with-baseball-bat-during-supermarket-looting-in-north-london.html shows how London is falling apart:

'Scores of young men spilled out of a house party and caused mayhem on the streets of Crouch Hill. 

Witnesses said they set off fireworks by a petrol station, threw missiles at cars, pushed a moped rider off his bike and hurled eggs and paint at passers-by before storming the shop. 

Footage captured on the Budget Supermarket's CCTV shows the gang rush inside and clear the shelves of sweets before being chased out by staff, one of whom grabbed a bat from under the counter.

The terrified workers barricaded the door as the group kicked at the shopfront in a stand-off which continued until police arrived. Officers called in the Met helicopter, which kept watch as the crowd quickly dispersed.

Shop owner Hawar Bakhtear, 34, who can be seen running at the mass of youths with a baseball bat, suffered a deep cut to his hand after one attacker threw a bottle. 

He said: "They were like locusts, there were so many of them. The only thing I could do was protect my staff. I didn't care about the stuff they were taking.

"It was very scary and they need to be punished; if the police don't react they will do it all over again."

A Met spokeswoman said officers were called to reports of up to 100 youths hurling missiles including fireworks at buildings and cars. She added: "A number of items were also reported stolen from a shop on Crouch Hill and objects thrown at the store front.

"Due to the large crowd, additional police resources from the Territorial Support Group were requested. Those officers were en route to assist but not required as the presence of the police helicopter quickly dispersed the group."

No arrests were made and enquiries are continuing, she added.'

Bye bye London?
