@thereturnofBWA I was driving an old wreck of a car at the time, and desperate to get rid without losing too much. Left it parked in a bad area with key in the ignition, unlocked and it was fine when I went back a few days later. I was gutted

@thereturnofBWA I remember watching live news reports from the scene. Some young presenter shoved amongst it all whilst things are lobbed about behind him, and he’s got his finger in his ear trying to relay info 😣🙊
