London: Teen Arrested After Five Acid Attacks in 84 Minutes
Breitbart London ^ | July 14, 2017 | Oliver JJ Lane

Posted on 07/14/2017 2:58:24 PM PDT by Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Police are treating a series of acid attacks Thursday night across London as linked, and have arrested a 16-year-old male.

At least one victim suffered “life changing injuries” Thursday night in the apparent crime spree, which saw five attacks take place in 84 minutes in East London and Islington.

The arrested teenager is being held on suspicion of grievous bodily harm and robbery.

Police described the attacks in their statement, which revealed the first attack took place at 22:25 on the Hackney road. Officers said the male victim had been on a moped when a pair of men on a second moped pulled up beside him.

The men threw a “corrosive substance” into his face, before stealing his moped and riding away. When officers responded, they found that the man had sustained facial injuries, but they are not being treated as “life threatening or life changing”.

The second attack took place 40 minutes later on Shoreditch High Street — a location just half a mile away. Once again, two men on a moped threw acid into the face of a man, who was taken to a hospital.

Eight minutes after that, police received a third call after a man in his 20s had acid thrown in his face. The most serious of the attacks, a crime scene was set up at the location and the man is reported to have received “life-changing” injuries.

NOT the acid attack in question, but illustrative of the typical effects:

Teenager? Hmmm, yes it’s important that we know the general age in terms of decades of the perps. Valuable information there.

Got muslims?

I think the perpetrators here should be immediately put to death and their organs sold, with the proceeds going to the victims.

That should be the standard way of dealing with these bastards.

Throw the same acid on them and once the initial pain is gone, throw more on them. Repeat. Then, take them out and shoot them. These are animals and need to be put down.

Dropped in a vat of acid.

Forget harvesting their organs.

These attacks occurred in areas in London that are most heavily populated by muslims.

The media will not inform you of this.

The most attacks (398) occurred in the London Borough of Newham, which is 32% Muslim at the time of the 2011 census. Compare that to the national average of 4.8%, and the London average of 12%.

The second-most (134) occurred in Barking & Dagenham. In 2011, the Muslim population was 13.7%.

The third-most (84) were in Tower Hamlets: 38% Muslim, according to the same census.

Getting blinded with acid whilst your iPhone gets pinched is just part and parcel of living in a big city, isn't it?

Another article I read about these attacks claim that perps have switched to acid because the penalties are less severe than getting caught using a knife. Acid attacks are charged as "grievous bodily harm" whereas knife attacks bring an attempted murder charge.

For example:

The second-most acid attacks (134) occurred in Barking & Dagenham. In 2011, the Muslim population was 13.7%.

DAGENHAM

http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/schoolboy-12-two-teens-arrested-9902942

“Three school boys arrested after ‘acid attack’ .. in Sydney Russell School in Dagenham.”

In DAGENHAM

Large number of muslims, large numbers of acid attacks.

Also, from the Telegraph..

Acid attacks linked to Asian communities

“Experts say they believe many of the cases involving acid are linked to Asian communities,..”

Almost all 144 assaults in 2011/12 were Asian.
