A man killed by a shotgun blast to the chest may have been attacked in revenge after a snowball fight between two groups of youths in east London.
Mahmood Jama, 21, of Plaistow was shot dead moments after one of the men in the other group was hit in the face with a snowball.
He was chased into a block of flats in Newham and shot. Witnesses told police that the incident was sparked by a snowball fight on a garage forecourt about half a mile away in Studley Road. Mr Jama was found bleeding to death on the first floor of Whyteville House in Upton Lane last Wednesday.
One witness, who did not want to be named, said the victim was

Yes they do, that's a lukewarm reaction by east-end standards. Ron and Reg would have been proud.

Operation Trident is a branch of the Metropolian Police that deals solely in black on black crime in London.
In this case, black also means asian. It's made up of 550 officers in total in various roles. Which begs the question : If blacks and asians aren't a problem in London (as some morons believe) why does this branch exist ? |

By:
Are you one of those morons? Who is?
Personally I think ALL crime is a problem. |

% Of each race that are self employed (2001 Census)
I'm not sure that these stats are entirely relevant. I would be interested to see if there is a correlation with % of people with a criminal record in each population. |
