The Cancer reported on Monday that a house in Fulford Road, Hartcliffe was fired at in a “drive-by” shooting. It went on to say:

No further firearms incidents have been reported in the area. As one local explained: “it’s a close street and everyone sticks up for each other.”
I smiled when I read that yesterday. I suspect that particular brand of ‘community policing’ might prove more effective than Atrium-style arsery 😀
