One more killing on the streets of our capital, that only the Daily Mail thought it important enough to report on.

All the other newspapers reported this 2 days ago...

Though it is very sad for those involved, a street robbery gone wrong isn't really an 'important' story.

You are correct, a street robbery watched by schoolchildren, perpetrated by two teenaged girls ending up in the death of a father.............is not that important.

Doesn't that say something about modern society?

Thanks for that Gromit, but it is strange that i conducted a Google search before I posted and only the Mail came up with the story.

Agree with sqad a sad reflection on modern society.

On that Google search, this story came up which unfortunately amuses me, though I know it shouldn't...

// In a separate incident, two men were found with injuries outside a club in Abbey Road in the Harlesden area of north-west London just after 03:00 where a foam party was taking place.

One man, 22, suffered a gunshot wound to the leg while the second victim, also aged 22, had injuries to the head. None of their injuries were life-threatening, police said.

Officers believe the men were at the party and at the time of the incident several people had run out onto the street after a foam machine malfunctioned. //

Ah that is where I made my mistake I typed the victim's name in the Google search box, obviously 2 days ago they had not released the man's identity until he had been formally identified.
