This is what seriously pisses me off with the law in this country.
A month or two back, a friend of mine told me he saw a chav quickly force his way into a derelict, unused private garage and soon after, saw him running out of the garage with smoke billowing from the broken, open door. My mate rang the fire brigade and reported the incident to the police. He confirmed the identity of the chav to the police, who simply said that unless someone could prove the chav actually lit a match to start the fire, there was nothing they could do. wtf !
I think the chances of the garage already being on fire and the chav being a good samaritan risking his life to break into the garage and put it out are quite slim.......or was the copper thinking of something else ?
