I heard it was a Wire fan who was going to blow himself up, if Lowes didnt go.
As a result a fake news conference was arranged in which its been announced that Tony Smith is taking over the reigns at Warrington.

Fella was seen 'acting suspiciously' apparently. What was he doing, working?

Just another average day in St Helens. The Police/Fire Engine presence up Prescot Road was ridiculous!

somebody enters a factory with a suspect package and takes someone hostage..

what would you rather, a couple of PCTSOS on a bike (and that's no disrespect to PCTSOS)

if there was ever a need for a big presence this was it!

Oh yeh, man with bomb (potentially) strapped around his chest walking around, takes someone hostage, all in a place that contains compressed gas and chemicals. And you think that the police presence wasn't neccessary. Stupidest thing I have ever heard in my life.
