a mans been arrested for this,whats wrong with these young guys killing people ,dont they understand the consequences , now committing that cruel act he will lose his freedom for many years (hopefully)

I have a swiss army knife on my (car) key ring - never gave it a thought until now - only because I've lived abroad for many years and often a 'pointy' thing came in useful- usually to take a stone out of an 'orses 'oof. That's not meant to be disrespectful to the thread btw.

rsvp its not disrespectful. many people will keep knives on them especially if you live in the country. It depends on what sort of knife was the murder weapon though .

[rsvp]

an anomoly really retrochic - you keep things in your car to facilitate helping yourself out of a problem but you may run foul of the law.

[ummmm]

I was just thinking it could have been a screwdriver or something.

[Retrochic]

good point Ummmm I just think stabbing = knife , screwdriver would perhaps be to hand in a car. whatever it was is unbelievable and truly horrific for the family.

[ummmm]

By all accounts he sounded like a lovely man (although I know people rarely say anything bad at times like these)

Your link also says that he was knifed, Baldric.

Mr Lock, who was recently given the all-clear from cancer, was knifed after getting out of his car after a crash with another vehicle on the A24.

[Baldric]

Given the nature of the thread I thought that was a 'given' tbh!

[tonyav]

So did I, Baldric. But that certainly clarifies it.

The victim's family were on the news tonight. How very sad. Absolutely awful.

still being questioned and not charged...

which means that we can still go on making outrageous comments

seems a bit crazy when someone barps you up the back, that you then chase him and stab him to death - perhaps he didnt stop and exchange insurance companies ?
