POLICE IN LONDON are appealing for information after a “callous assault” on an 80-year-old woman earlier this week.
One of the suspects they are seeking is described as a “white male who spoke with an Irish accent” and wore a black hoodie and black trousers.
The incident occurred at the Bassett Street flats in Camden, central London, on Wednesday morning.
According to the Metropolitan police, a group of two women in their 20s, and a man, followed the victim into the flat complex, and began causing a “noise nuisance” on the stairwell.
Before the victim entered her flat she told them to keep quiet and a female from the group then made her way up to her floor and confronted her, pushing the victim to the floor.
The group then fled the scene.
Detective Constable Adele Joyner condemned the incident, and said the elderly woman had been left “shaken.”
This was a callous act and the victim sustained extensive bruising to her right arm and elbow.
Thankfully, her injuries were not serious but understandably she is very shaken by what happened.

Making a show of our country. Poor woman.
Too right.
A little creti!n like that probably already had a record before sneaking in as an economic migrant! They’re sleepwalking into an immigration crisis. Block up the borders I say.
Oh wait, sorry, I replied on the wrong article.
Is that the one about the Pakistani rapist wanted in the UK and last spotted in Limerick?
You could copy and paste the above to that article easily enough and it would blend right in.

Except the Irish have gone to UK for years, another European country where we have nearly the same ancestral and cultural heritage and the Irish do not in general cause any problems in Britain, contrast that with the Pakistani and Asian populations who have gone on to create no-go areas in UK, gone on to gangrape 1400 white British girls in 1 UK town alone of Rotherham, 400 in Oxfordshire, 500 in Newcastle.
Your attempt to use this 1 incident for the purposes to advertise that we should open our borders to incompatible ethnicities and cultures, is the typical lowlife behaviour we have come to expect from immigration-pushers.
What sort of an animal assaults an 80 year old woman.
Dragged up lowlifes who were never taught the meaning of respect Stephen.
a monster walking the streets. …regardless of what accent it has it should be put down
If the perpetrator had a foreign accent, the outcry from our home grown right wing nutters would be huge but an Irish man, ah right he probably didn’t mean to hurt her, just havin the craic!

Wrong, pro Irish people would condemn all acts of criminality. It is usually the far-left who are soft on crime. The right wing as you put it are FF, FG and lab, all proponents of open-borders. The only people for the Irish people are patriots and nationalists. The only nutters who exist are people in this country forcing intrusive and interfering policies of multicult upon them which change their ethnicity and living circumstances forever. That is what you are doing, you are the nutter Matt.
@Lasar
Coming from you I take the “nutter” as a compliment!
What patriots you are referring to?
The Provos? Blue shirts? Or the drunken yobs in our various social housing estates, living off the tax payers money and flagging the Tricolour while peddling some coke and heroin to the hood?
Real patriots wouldn’t be as
short sighted and narrow minded as you are. A lot of noise but no substance!
Your solutions for complex problems fit on a bumper sticker!
Cough, Travellers, cough, there isn’t an 80 within 50 miles of Rathkeale who haunt been assaulted, raped and robbed at this point in time….
Making a show of our country? Yeah the whole nation will be painted as granny bashers cos of this one mugs actions? Also who is to say it wasn’t a northy accent?
yes. I love in London and the only Irish accent they can distinguish is the northern one
Malcolm, there are people who generalise the actions of a group or nation’s people by the actions of a tiny minority, and who would see a story such as this and cite it as an example of typical Irish behaviours.

A history lesson for you wee Ciaran.8000 YRS ago hunter gatherers walked from Europe to what would much later become Britain-yes walked because it was before the white cliffs of Dover or the English Channel existed.These people`s descendants are still around.No they are not the English.They are the indigenous people of Ireland,Scotland,Cornwall,IOM and Wales.Now if one of them is back in the now island of Britain they have every right to be-because we were here first.Think on that the next time you cry watching Dances With Wolves,love.
It could very well have been an Irish guy. But I will draw your attention to harry Stanley, a Scottish man who was shot dead by police in London in 1999 after someone reported him as having an Irish accent.
It says a female confronted and pushed the old lady so why are they looking for a man with an irish accent?
Goes to show, young or old, always hold the tongue when you’re out numbered !
Disgusting thing to do. But I live overseas and have been mistaken for English, Australian and even South African so you never know
I was asked if I am from Austria. (From Dublin)
