Cyclists fighting among themselves (or something)...
.... perhaps they're just looking for lone female victims again, even if
they are on bikes? https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-53035084 QUOTE: At least two women have been pushed into a canal by a gang of young men on bikes. Xxxxxx Xxxxxx was shoved into the water near the University of Birmingham as she cycled past the group on Friday evening. Shortly afterwards, as she made her way home, she came across another woman who had also been pushed in. Ms Xxxxxx, who has reported the matter to police, was left bruised and shaken but otherwise unhurt. West Midlands Police has yet to comment. The 26-year-old said she often cycles along the route by the University of Birmingham and had been out alone for a leisure ride when it happened. She said she does not really remember getting out of the canal, but managed to retrieve her bike and carried on a short way where she came across another victim by The Vale student accommodation. "I could see another woman, about my age, in tears and two cyclists helping her," she said. "She had been pushed in too. "I am still a bit shocked by it all, but I've had a huge response to the incident on Twitter. "I'm going to carry on cycling but I think I will avoid the canal for a bit. I'm worried they have targeted other women." ENDQUOTE |
