Chanting mob of children killed boy 'to take his dog'
Daily Mail ^ | 3/15/07

Posted on 03/15/2007 10:47:02 AM PDT by LibWhacker

A boy of 16 was stabbed to death by a gang of teenage boys and girls for his dog, according to police.

The group of attackers were dressed in school uniforms and were shouting "kill him, kill him" as they pursued him.

They are said to have set two of their own dogs on the boy after he was stabbed in the heart and leg.

The victim was walking his Staffordshire bull terrier when he was chased along Hammersmith Grove by the group. Some were said to be as young as 14.

Residents told of their shock at the attack happening in a quiet street where houses sell for £1 million. Police have not named the boy but a friend said he was known as Kodjo.

Hammersmith Grove Murder

The area is known locally as Brackenbury Village and is popular with film stars and broadcasters.

The attack follows the murders of three teenagers and young men who were shot and a fourth who was stabbed in two weeks of gang-related violence in south London last month.

After the stabbing at 5.30pm the gang split up and fled into a network of residential streets. They were pursued at high speed by officers in unmarked police cars who were on the scene in minutes.

Five youths were arrested in what is believed to be a housing association property in Iffley Road. They are being interviewed at separate police stations.

Residents told of a group of boys and girls in school uniforms aged about 14 shouting "let's get him&" before the victim was stabbed in the heart and leg.

The group are said to have set their own dogs on the boy and kicked him as he lay dying. One boy was seen waving a 12-inch knife in the air.

Hammersmith Grove Murder

Sources said the attack in Hammersmith Grove yesterday afternoon is believed to have taken place after an earlier clash between rival gangs.

The victim is not believed to have been present at the first incident but was spotted and identified as being from the rival group.

One woman said: "I saw eight or nine black boys in a very agitated state. One of them was waving a massive knife around. These boys were very hyped up. I recognised one of them as being a well-known local gang member. These kids were all gravitating around the boy with the carving knife.

" These children were much younger than the boy they were chasing. The attackers were all wearing dark blue or black school uniforms. They were really going for this boy even though he was bigger and older than them.

"They were shouting so loudly that they set a car alarm off. There was so much hatred in the way they were attacking him, you could tell it was more serious.

"At one point they surrounded their victim. He managed to free himself from the group and he was backing away from them.

"He was walking backwards facing them because he was obviously scared to turn his back to them. He looked terrified. He was black, aged 16, and had a dog with him."

The victim was named locally as Kodjo. The woman continued: "These boys wanted Kodjo's dog. They had been threatening him and bullying him for weeks. That is what it was about.

"These gang members like to boast about their dogs. They breed them to fight each other and they wanted Kodjo's dog. He wouldn't give it to them.

"He was trying to keep them away from it when they attacked him." One of the dead boy's friends blamed the killing on a turf war between rival gangs in the Shepherd's Bush-White City area.

Winnie Clements, 17, said: "They are trying to make a point - show who is bigger, who is better. It's just stupid. It needs to stop. Everyone is getting fed up.î One witness said the gang involved calls itself MDP - Murder Dem Pussies.

After the stabbing at 5.30pm the group split up and fled. They were pursued at high speed by officers in unmarked police cars who were on the scene in minutes.

Five youths were arrested in what is believed to be a housing association property in Iffley Road. They are being interviewed at separate police stations.

Sources said a knife was found in a garden in the same street. At least two more suspects are being hunted. Police believe the victim and his attackers knew each other.

Staffordshire bull terriers are once again becoming the accessory - and occasionally the weapon - of choice on the urban streets.

Typical new breed of owner: young lad, aged 15-22 and the purpose for having the dog is to gain respect, to intimidate, to use as a form of protection, and sometimes for crime.

My father used to say that murder should carry a 30 day jail sentence.

It shouldn't take that long to build a gallows.

Is there any good news out of the UK these days?

No.

In other news, Englands liberals have eliminated from schools "the Three Little Pigs," and replace it with "The Three Little Puppies," because talking or singing about pigs may offend muslims.

Even muslims have come forward and said this is crazy, and that while the koran forbids touching a pig or eating pork, the koran says nothing about talking about or even singing about pigs and is not a problem.

the English are doing it to themselves. Liberal PC run amuck.

That dog thing is another bit of American social poison exported with the gangster rap culture. Add another one to the body count.

No, this cultural rot happens when there are no guns to terminate the very anti-social so the impulses grow and spread. Why personally restrain degeneration and anti-social behavior when there are no real conseqences for being so 'darwinian'? [What was that movie? ... Clockwork Orange!]

Plenty of it, I assure you. You're unlikely to hear it, however, for two reasons: it's bad news rather than good news, by and large, which sells newspapers; and (if this site is your main source of UK news) the good news stories are not, in the main, those which Freepers choose to pick up on and post. Yes, there's plenty wrong with my country (as, I dare say, there could be with yours): but there's also plenty to be heartened by and take delight in.

When I first saw the title, I thought this had happened in Asia, or perhaps Africa.

Then I read further and found out where it REALLY happened.

Britain is doomed. Now I understand why British whites are fleeing in increasing numbers.

I cannot prove or exclude a "migrant background", but I guess it's rather unlikely for Muslim "youths" to have/want dogs.

Perhaps Muslims consider dog ownership to be acceptable if the dogs are used as weapons against the infidel.

You must’ve been in a very well structured environment as a kid. I grew up fearing that “lord of the flies” was about to break out at any moment. There was only one neighborhood kid that I would even allow in our house at all. I was very relieved when my dad decided on the same rule. That way I could say “it’s not my rule, my dad says...”. I felt sorry for kids that didn’t have a dad around. My dad was a huge safety net for me.

I was in minor scuffles daily...serious fistfights about once a month...from age 8 to about age 14. Weapons were not acceptable back then though. They were a sign of weakness or poor social status. No one wanted to actually use a weapon in a real fight because of the social repercussions. "Fair fight" and all that...if you violated the code, you were doomed. Bragging about weapons was a different matter though.

I was wondering the same. But I’m pretty sure it means brown and/or black in american english. In otherwords, I think they were pakistani.

That is incorrect, I believe.

I’m pretty sure it is only arab muslims that shun dog ownership. Turks, southern USSR, and other non arab muslims are very commonly dog owners. In the middle east, sight hounds used for wolf hunting were very common in ancient times. This was a pastime practiced by muslims as well as christians. These sighthounds were similar to greyhounds. Salukis and afghan hounds are good approximations.
