Just heard on news
Whilst I was dropping my kids off at school,I heard on Rock FM news that Empress St has be blocked off both ways,but it didnt say why.Anybody heard anything?
|
Re: Just heard on news
Well its not blocked very well the bin men have just been down it
i have been told about this by two members but not seen anything going on |
Re: Just heard on news
Yeah does seem strange:confused: Especially as Empress st isnt really a through road like countess st,well nevermind we may here something on local news later if it was anything serious.
|
Re: Just heard on news
It said on radio news that there has been a serious assault, it mentioned Empress St and also mentioned India Street as well. Since I'm not from Accy I don't know if these streets are near each other.
|
Re: Just heard on news
yes they are i live 2 streets over from India st and Empress st runs across the top of the street but cant see anything
|
Re: Just heard on news
Maybe it happened earlier and is allover and done with now. Or have they taped off the back alley perhaps?
|
Looks like a mans been stabbed :eek:

Re: Just heard on news
From the bbc:
A 19-year-old man is critically ill in hospital after being stabbed in east Lancashire. Police were called to a disturbance in Empress Street in Accrington in the early hours of Friday. The victim was found by officers with a stab wound to his chest and was taken to hospital where he has undergone emergency surgery. Two men from Accrington, aged 19 and 23, have been arrested on suspicion of wounding and inquiries are continuing. |
Re: Just heard on news
I was walking through when a reporter was there earlier. She asked me if I had seen or heard anything there last night but as I don't live on the street, I hadn't. Sounds like a nasty business though.

Re: Just heard on news
yes it does they tock him to blackpool
|
Re: Just heard on news
I have been told that it was a 'noise' dispute. One person was playing loud music and someone said they were going to quieten him down for good.

I got told it was four blokes beating one up and the guy who got stabbed tried to help

Re: Just heard on news
Whatever it was that happened, they saved his life at Royal Blackburn Hospital, then transferred him to Blackpool Vic. This lad is fighting for his life. And if he's been transferred to Blackpool Vic, then that tells me that it's his heart.
Lets just hope he pulls through eh.........he's only 19 |

Not on about reporting loud music, although this is a particular bug bear of mine round where i live...and not just me, but my teenage sons, who enjoy their music, but at an acceptable level. They only like "loud" music when they play gigs lol! But the fact that no one bothered to report this escalating episode. I am one of those people that reports everything that goes on round here. Trying to nip things in the bud. It's got to the point these days when I say when i call "has any one else reported this incident", and no one ever has. But the people that never do, are always the first to complain when things go wrong. :mad: |
Re: Just heard on news
Well if he has been transfered to b/pol vic for surgery it might very well be his heart.b/pool vic is a leading hospital for any heart condition that requires surgery.just hope he will be ok

Re: Just heard on news
Royal Blackburn sends all it's major heart patients to Blackpool Vic. Royal Blackburn do the angiograms and the TOES, and the pacemakers and the pacemaker battery changes, but everything else goes to Blackpool

Re: Just heard on news
Was surprised last night when son texted me to say had just had first lesson on Krav Maga ... uh !! .. what is that ?? Martial Arts thingy .. did do jujitsu when younger, but not an aggressive lad. Looked up on You Tube, is a defence against weapon violence plus fitness regime. Think maybe is something to do with the fact he cycles through Moss Side every day on his way to work. :rolleyes: Did think at first he had been watching too much James Bond, particularly a remark that he will be fit for Mosad in 12 months.
YouTube - Krav Maga on Discovery Channel Sure that more and more of these 'arts' will encounter more enrolment during the next decade. Sad .. :( |

I have only praise for Royal blackburn i was rushed in with suspected heart attack earlier this year.All the cardiac team that i was under where marvelous I was informed though that i might need transfering to blackpool vic if i needed surgery.

The stab victim's life was saved by a junior cardiologist at royal Blackburn hospital who removed blood from around his heart by inserting a tube while he was just about to die. The patient was then transferred to Blackpool for open heart surgery to close the stab wound in his heart. The cardiologist at Blacburn is a hero. |
Re: Just heard on news
yes they all are from the paramedics to the peaple that give blood
|
Re: Just heard on news
I do hope the lad pulls through ok from his. I bet that is one Doctor who feels good about himself, I wonder if he has stopped smiling yet - it must give you a really special feeling to save someone's life live that.
Now what do we all think the punishment should be for sticking a knife into someone's heart? Don't forget that just possessing an unlicensed firearm, without doing anything with it, is supposed to get you 5 years. |
Re: Just heard on news
Does anyone know how the lad is today and has the 2 people held by the police been charged with anything yet ??
I have not seen anything on the TV and don't listen to the radio |
Re: Just heard on news
Have just heard from a friend of the lads mum that he is off life support, out of intensive care and on the high depency unit now. Sounds like things are moving in the right direction for him thanfully
