Good afternoon,
Beaten, but no action taken
Police criticised for failing to report brutal attack on teen

Police have failed to take out an investigation on a 15 year old boy found needing medical attention and was found wounded in Malden road. Camden police are carrying out an internal investigation after we questioned why no criminal offence was recorded.
A witness described how the youth was attacked, with a broken glass bottle. It has been suggested the incident was caused by teenage gang wars, some of the gangs were seen with belts clenched in their hands. They were said to be boasting about “scarring up” a rival. The victim and his parents have made no complaint, but no crime report has been filed by officers however the home offices demand it is essential to do so. Police have taken action and are filing a criminal report.
