A pensioner has been arrested after a suspected burglar was killed during a violent tussle at his home. The 78-year-old was held on suspicion of murder after the 38-year-old died of his wounds in hospital in the early hours of Wednesday morning. Police said the struggle broke out after the pensioner found two men inside his home in South Park, Hither Green, south London shortly after midnight. One of the burglars, who was armed with a screwdriver, forced the homeowner into his kitchen while his accomplice went upstairs. Detectives believe a struggle then took place between "one of the males and the homeowner" and the 38-year-old intruder was stabbed in the upper body. He was later found collapsed in nearby Further Green Road by paramedics from London Ambulance Service, who took him to a central London hospital where he died at 3.37am. The second suspect fled the scene before police arrived and is now being hunted by the Met’s Homicide and Major Crime Command. Gordon Williams, a local resident, said: "I could hear people moaning in the street and just thought it was someone drunk. I saw the body laid in the street and another guy jump in a van and leave. "I leaned over him and tried to reassure him. There was a lot of blood." In a statement Scotland Yard said: “At 00:45hrs on Wednesday, 4 April, police were called by a homeowner to reports of a burglary in progress at an address in South Park Crescent, Hither Green SE6, and a man injured. “The 78-year-old resident found two males inside the address. A struggle ensued between one of the males and the homeowner. The man, aged 37, sustained a stab wound to the upper body.”

IF I live to be 78, and sometimes I doubt it...
I would say, “Screw you, do your worse!”, to the judge.
“At least one human cockroach is dead, and none of yer fancy poofter wig-wearing gaveling will bring ‘em back!”
That’s what police state proponents want in the U.S.A.
Despite the political confusion they push, it’s simple as to who they are. They’re power hungry control freaks. They don’t want any competition or backtalk. If you don’t discourage them enough by voting for a majority Republican Congress this year, they’re going to try as hard as they can to disarm you all very soon.
And no, you won’t hrah, hrah, hrah or rawr, rawr, rawr! You’ll wake up in the middle of the night to many muzzles pointed at your faces and faces of your families. And you’ll say, “Meow! Waaaa!”
So don’t be a lazy, whining wimp, and I don’t want to hear about the same notorious, little, bitty handful of bad Republicans. Vote!
Sounds like that demoncrap who told women when they are being raped to “just lay back and enjoy it.”
Yes, quite gone. And we are not far behind. No more than a generation.
My liberal British neighbor is also stunned.
She goes to London every year, comes back really upset over what is happening there.
Still is a lib.
Go figure.
The first purpose of any government is to protect the law-abiding from the lawless.
When it refuses to do this obvious duty is the time to replace it and hang the evildoing public officials who let this happen.
“That’s what police state proponents want in the U.S.A.”
What the police state proponents want and what they get are two different things. Recently had an attempted robbery at a Waffle House. An armed customer drew out his magnum and blew the robber’s face out through the other side of his head.
The County sheriff complimented the armed citizen on his good shooting. Everybody went home pleased, except for the robber.
Good on the Non-PC old guy for defending himself. Screw the left wing police.
Not necessarily, they’re are plenty of black and white criminals too. Just sayin’.
