Police Search
 

Moorhead school field is crawling with police searching,they have put up a tent. Anyone know what's going on?

Re: Police Search
 

If theyve put a tent up it usually means they have found someone doesnt it.

I have no idea whats going on but am sure if anyone does they will let us know

Re: Police Search
 

Is it the policemans ball?

Re: Police Search
 

Yep, when a tent appears, its not good news..................

Re: Police Search
 

would if its anything to do with the Alan Street murder!

Re: Police Search
 

I thought the same ..... but there may have been another murder
it seems to be a growing trend lately:eek:

Re: Police Search
 

I was wondering the same

Re: Police Search
 

If it is him - he would have been buried - or dogs would have found him before now

Re: Police Search
 

Would have thought school kids would have seen something if it was on the surface

Re: Police Search
 

That makes four of us who were wondering that

Re: Police Search
 

Perhaps the field hasn't been used for sports due to bad weather

Re: Police Search
 

Nah.....they're too busy texting on their mobiles to notice 'owt like a dead body.

Re: Police Search
 

it does not shock us anymore does it ..... murder its like everyday news so sad:

Re: Police Search
 

Go on then make it five...................:rolleyes:

Re: Police Search
 

if they are down the bottom of the field near to where the old Queens building was, the kids wouldnt have spotted anything, they dont use that bit for anything anymore

Re: Police Search
 

Is Moorhead the old Accy High School for girls? Probably a stupid question!

Re: Police Search
 

yes it is

Re: Police Search
 

joaner3 - there has been more building of shools in that area since you left in '74
If you look on google earth with a search 'BB5 UK' you will see the buildings added on Queens Rd West, and even more building has happened since those google shots were taken

Re: Police Search
 

Apparently they have found some very rare objects from the late 80's early 90's



It's Tink's homework :D

Re: Police Search
 

Thanks Margaret, I was back last September and couldn't believe the changes.
I went to see my old home on Arncliffe Ave, what a difference.

Re: Police Search
 

I shall have a nosey after ;)

Re: Police Search
 

Just been past Moorhead - no sign of the police, must have missed them!

Re: Police Search
 

cant be a crime scene then!

Re: Police Search
 

Strange for them to erect a tent if theres nothing there

Re: Police Search
 

Don't be silly Dave... we didn't bury the dog on Moorhead Field!! ;) and apparently that's where her homework ended up.. week after week after week!! :D:D

Re: Police Search
 

was it lunch time? mebbe they fancied a picnic?

Re: Police Search
 

Might have been some health and safety thing about how to put a tent up

Re: Police Search
 

They may well have found what they were looking for, and taken forensic samples and photos, so have finished their work in a day.
Do you folks not watch NCIS and such like forensic tv shows?

Re: Police Search
 

Yes I do, am a big fan of CSI :rolleyes:

Re: Police Search
 

NCIS is better - they have 'the crack'- disecting bodies made fun!

Re: Police Search
 

Yep i watch CSI, and the CSI in this country wear white boiler type suits, over there they dont...which to me would contaminate evidence, cuz they have there hair down etc:D, so it really aint the same is it :rolleyes:

Re: Police Search
 

They arint gonna look as fetching in boiler suits though are they :rolleyes: silly

Re: Police Search
 

Might have found some of the dodgy exsperiments from me and a few others when we were there. :rolleyes::D

Re: Police Search
 

Leaving your DNA in isolated locations is not a good idea:eek:

Re: Police Search
 

As well as the tent can you see a campfire & hear "ging gang gooley" ? :D

Re: Police Search
 

i do hope its nothing bad

Re: Police Search
 

Even changed the name over here now to CSI from SOCO, just like the good old US of A

Re: Police Search
 

Police have found a body in an underground stream.
Police in 'murder' probe find a body in Accrington (From This Is Lancashire)

Re: Police Search
 

I was going to say Tink's knickers but they would not be a rare sight on the field
:eek::D:p

Re: Police Search
 

.....and neither of those 2 sites are yet confirmed as being connected with the Alan Sreet murder.

Re: Police Search
 

Is this anything to do with the digging up at Moorhead High School or is that a different case.

Re: Police Search
 

The activity at Moorhead may well have been a search of 'newly disturbed ground' which must have not revealed any human remains or we would have heard about it by now

Re: Police Search
 

well they found a body in the sewers, so it may be him, who else has gone missing?

Re: Police Search
 

People go missing every day and some never get reported missing.
I recall the body of that teenager found in a drain at Ewood - he had been missing for 15 years and would not have been found if Rovers had not bought houses for their ground expansion

Who else is missing? --- Mr Guilfoyle

Re: Police Search
 

that bloke Gilly who went missing a couple of years ago, the one where that other bloke was done for murder but they never found the body.....perhaps it might be him??

Re: Police Search
 

how long as he been missing?

Theres no mention of a decomposed body so I assume its 'fresh',:(

Re: Police Search
 

Even if it is Mr Street in would not be recognisable if it has been in knee deep water since mid December.
The chemical content of the water can also affect decomposition rates. There is a chemical lab on one side of the street where the access manhole was entered.

Re: Police Search
 

its just been on the news, they where saying that the body still hasnt been identified

Re: Police Search
 

I wouldn't have thought it will be much longer before he can be identified.

I would imagine that he is not fit to be identified visually by his family so the police are probably going to identify him with dna/blood tests/dental records.

Re: Police Search
 

yeah, true

Re: Police Search
 

I would think the police will be sympathetic with family members of this man and use other forms of identification to save the family from more trauma.
whoever it is may he rest in peace and the suspects apprehended and brought to justice

Re: Police Search
 

this weekend 20 members of the mountain rescue team, 10 police officers and two sniffer dogs to find bodies - combed land behind St Christopher's High School, Queens Road West, Accrington.

thats why they where there then

Re: Police Search
 

They have identified him now BBC NEWS | UK | England | Lancashire | Body 'is missing murder victim'

Re: Police Search
 

yeah, we know, emzy has already put it in another thread ;)

Re: Police Search
 

Why, what is wrong with this one?

Re: Police Search
 

Sorry Neil :o Theres 2 threads running for pretty much the same thing

Re: Police Search
 

I just noticed the other one, I will let you off, just this time :D

Re: Police Search
 

Thanks :D (its only coz i beat you to it this time ;))

Re: Police Search
 

I am a gent so would let you win anyway ;)
