Murder?

Started by: tonker (27923) 

One of my lads works in Leigh and one of his workmates found a dead body on her walk to work this morning.
At the side of the canal, behind Aldi (St.Helens Road bridge area). She saw a load of blood and money scattered about, then the body. Lyin' theer, deeud, reet!
She's off work now, traumatised!

It's not safe, that Leigh!

I went past yesterday morning, loads of police on the bridge, they closed the towpath and had an incident tent there. A WPC confirmed someone was dead but didn't mention murder.

If the 16 and 17 yr olds are old enough to kill they are old enough to be named

It could be the old 'joint enterprise' thing, in that only one of them is the killer, but they were all there, so they all get done for it.
