I mean I have to ask just what kind of guns do the locals of Birstall normally walk about with then, Glocks or Hoosies I bet..
Jo was going to our local library campaigning for the remain side, she is a great worker and didn't deserve this at all.
I can tell you a 52yr. old man has been caught and taken into custody, the helicopter is still hovering over where he comes from which is less than 2 miles from the village.
I can see that the police are still in the village and cameraman from different companies are actually walking past our home now.
We had just left the village for the LGI hospital where she was taken, the place is surrounded by armed police with all the armed combo gear, we were allowed to get out OK and obviously now home.
Longfellow we don't carry guns in this village members of this village have a job to carry themselves.
The damned helicopter is overhead makes hell of a noise, I will try and keep you updated from the village, but the media has it all in hand.
We have heard she was shot in the face and head and is critical, you have to feel for her young kids.
Both sides in the referendum have suspended all activities to later date, maybe the vote won't be on next week.
We can all speculate but no doubt police want to know whether this guy is a one man band or from a group.
