These low lifes should be made to wash the floors and clean the toilets of the cycle owners shop !!! The very least they should do. What's the bet there's no punishment and they'll be off laughing.....
And then there were two

In the description of the assault and shoplifting described by Kris Snow in the Sun, there were "four youths with bikes." There were two miscreants who obviously did the assaulting and shoplifting, but then Kris describes a third was involved, so I assume that he and the fourth, who all left together, was aiding and abetting - yet only two will appear in court on Tuesday. I hope there is a good logical reason for the non-appearance of two.
