If the latest reports on the shooting are true then it'll really put the wind up people, and no mistake. Latest reports indicate that it's mainly opportunistic looting across the area now, and some reports are indicating that there is looting in Brixton, Edmonton and Walthamstow. There's also reports of rioters moving from area to area by car which is making them hard to track. There's been at least one stabbing, but not fatal. All in all though it's not as bad as Tottenham, the police have had a better response time in defusing large scale trouble, however that has meant that those responsible have now split into smaller scale looting/raiding parties and spread out across the area, which makes it very hard to get to. One cannot secure every single HMV in London!
