A young man had his hand cut off after being attacked with his own machete
by vigilantes in east London, according to reports.
The 19-year-old was found with “life-changing injuries” on Golding Street,
in the Whitechapel area, the Metropolitan Police said.
Officers were called to the residential area, in the borough of Tower
Hamlets, at about 5.45pm on Sunday.
In footage posted on social media, the man is sitting on the kerb of a
pavement holding a tea towel to his arm while surrounded by splatters of
his blood.
He was rushed to a major trauma unit at a hospital for the injury that
police described as a “significant knife wound to the arm”. His condition
was assessed as not life-threatening but likely life-changing.
A second man in his 20s was found in nearby Christian Street with a knife
wound. He was taken to hospital, before he was arrested and held in
custody – the Met said.
Police have launched an investigation into separate footage from a
vehicle’s dashcam, that shows part of the incident.
The Met said in a statement: “We are aware of a video on social media
showing a male who is visibly injured on a street in Tower Hamlets.
“The first half of the video appears to have been filmed following an
incident in Golding Street, E1 that is under investigation.”
According to the Standard, a local councillor said that a group of young
men armed with machetes have “allegedly targeted innocent people in that
area a few times”.
The councillor added, according to the report: “Locals decided to take
matters into their own hands.
“Nobody should ever condone vigilantism like this but it should also be a
lesson for people who carry knives: your weapon can easily be turned
against you.”
Anyone who witnessed the incident or who has information about what took
place should call 101 or tweet @MetCC, giving the reference 5643/12SEP.
Information can also be provided to Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800
555 111.

May the crimestopper hotline remain silent.

Sorry, Brit-twits, I'm not going to "sign in."

This one suffices quite well:

Somehow I cannot picture White people walking around with machetes in their
hands. But then, "THIS IS WHITECHAPEL," Jack the Ripper's stomping ground.
I take it "knife control" laws don't apply to "people of colour"
