It hasn’t appeared on their web site as I write this, but Meridian TV are reporting the story of a man who was run over and killed by the thief who stole his car outside Southampton Airport, just down the road from where I live. He foolishly stood in front of the car in an attempt to stop the theft.
What he should have done, obviously, was pull out his gun and shoot the thief dead. Oh, wait…
Luckily for the dead man, the police are reviewing CCTV footage in order to capture the thief.
Correction: This incident actually occurred in Liverpool, and the story can be found on the BBC News site. That’ll teach me to spend more time yelling at the TV than listening to it.
