Police officers hurt breaking up 'youngsters party' fight (UK)
« on: February 20, 2017, 02:18:57 pm »
A "youngsters party" which police said went "a little wrong" ended when two officers were hurt breaking up a fight.

Five people were also arrested in the brawl in Melton Mowbray's High Street on Saturday night.

Oakham Police tweeted it had "all gone a little wrong in #Melton youngsters party", adding "cops from all over" had been called in.

A special constable and a full-time officer were both hurt but their injuries were not serious.

Leicestershire Police Chief Constable Simon Cole tweeted that the attack on the officer was "#unacceptable".

The silly hashtag makes me wonder what else is filed under "#unacceptable."

If it's a purely British hashtag, you'll find everything from dodgy parking wardens to the holocaust under there.

It's the new London, these kids are supposed to drink their alco-pops and sleep around. Violence is unthinkable, though.

I guess "Youngster" is the British equivalent of "Teen".
