Thumbs down Police Waiting Times

Alec came home from school yesterday after having done his library duties and a meeting for his Duke of Edinburgh in tears. After coaxing what was wrong with it turned out that as he had left the school gates 2 asians and a white boy had set upton him, pinning him down to the floor and using his head as a football.
I immediately phoned the police, this was 4.50pm. Bu 9pm i was fed-up of waiting for them to arrive, so i drove Alec to Greenbank police station at Whitebirk. I had to talk to an operator through a yellow phone. I was not allowed into the police station and was promptly told to go home and wait for an Accrington officer to deal with it.
It was 11.30pm last night before they turned up, which in my opinion was too late for doing statements as they can go on for over an hour. The police officer will have to come back tonight at 8pm after parents evening, thats if he is not called away again to other incidents.
I have stressed in no certain terms that seeing as Alec recognises these lads as being fellow pupils at Moorhead and that he can name one of them that i will be prosecuting ! and no softly, softly approach either.

Who else thinks that turning up at 11.30pm to do a statement is a little late.

Also found out today that 2 asian lads and 1 white lad attacked another fellow pupil in school yesterday and the teachers didnt even have the powers to stop them. I am hoping that these are the same 3 that attacked my son.

Alec is fine, a few lumps and bruises. Luckily a bloke was walking by, when they saw him they did a runner.
