was told that about 20mins ago, along with a picture of JD sports in Leckwith with its window smashed, and the 24 hour mcdonalds has been told to close

Not sure how reliable it all is, but it's on twitter and there's a lot of people saying the same things. I might pop over myself and have a look...

I just posted this on CCMB in reply to someone who posted the pictures of JD on twitter:

For what it's worth, I can confirm that a group of kids have attempted to break in to JD Sports in the bay.

My brother works nights in one of those retail units in the bay, he locked up and finished early and is now on his way home after seeing what was going on with JD. It probably won't lead to anything but not really worth the risk getting caught up in it.

He said it looked like there were only 5-10 from a distance but when he drove past it was more like 20 odd. The only damage he could see was the window. He passed the police on his way out so it looks like they're aware of it.

On a side note, I think something is going on in Bristol again. I live fairly central and the chopper has been around this area allnight. Not seen anything yet though..

Scratch that just saw the police report, it's JD Sports down by Asda at Cardiff Bay. No entry gained all over.

It's not the retail park near our stadium but the one down the bay with Boots and Argos.

It was something and nothing.
