dustyfox Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 I have just had to make a statement about an incident. Earlier on I was with this kid and he took an egg from my house and said to me on the way out that he was going to egg something I said no but he didnt liston. About five minutes later he said he wanted to chuck it at a moving car and I said you chuck it at your own risk. So he chucked it at this car and they guy in the car stopped and chased us he went straight for the kid and caught him up. He went back to his house and the police went to his house. He made a statement and I think that he blamed me for throwing the egg. So they came round to my house and took a statement, I completly told the truth and after the statement had been done. They said to me are you sure you did not chuck the egg. I went yeah im sure. I then asked what is going to happen. The policeman said the kid will get charged as it nearly caused an accident and I may need to go to court to give evidence. Now the thing that scares me is that I told the police that he took the egg from my house but I did say that he couldnt. Would I get done for something here? And would it affect me getting my SGC when I apply? Thanks DF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cranfield Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 If you are being charged with an offence, they will tell you. Depending on the offence and whether you are found guilty or not, it could affect a future SGC application. If you are being summoned as a witness, it will have no effect on anything.

You did well explaining the truth, to be honest the Police will not prevent you from obtaining your SGC even if you have been to court for a minor incident that you were not guilty of, or did not receive a caution for. You should be fine, just avoid having trouble makers around you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, if you are going to be charged with an offence, they will tell you. You will have to wait and see. It does sound as though the driver saw your "friend" throw the egg and so if he tries to blame you he is unlikely to succeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustyfox Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Well I am still shaking as I am scarred of getting done for something I did not do. If it does go to court I hope the driver of the car knows it was him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it does go to court I hope the driver of the car knows it was him. Relax! unless there is evidence to show that you commited the act.. then its the lads word against yours in court. They are police officers, not muppets (some will disagree with me there). Providing you cooperate and give the truth you should be fine, I doubt it will even go to court unless said lad really kicks up an issue.

pin Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Forget it, you didn't do anything, and if your "mate" sounds as daft as he really is when the heat comes you can easily dupe him into signing a "I'd like to **** the spice girls" confession Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not going to lie. Me being stupid I ran off making it look like I throw it but that was me panacking and didnt want to get caught in case he though it was me and gave me a smack on the nose. Im on Pigeonwatch arms I want to talk to people about it. Edited March 17, 2008 by dustyfox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GamezBond Posted March 17, 2008 Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Hey, You got nothing to worry about. And please, make sure that whenever you talk to them again, do NOT start talking as if you have to say something to prove you were not responsible( or in other words being defensive). the fact is that THEY have to prove that you did it (meaning you dont have to prove that you were innocent). the car driver ran for the boy in the first place, so for sure he saw that it was the boy and not you. You did not help the boy escape etc either, and I assume you are not his guardian either. With all this truth in your favour, against one lie from the boy, I dont think that the boy, or the police will be able to prove you guilty(beyond reasonable doubt). So please relax, stop worrying, think of yourself as ONLY a witness and not a guilty party, and treat this incident as a warning to stay away from silly kids. Good luck GB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skb 557 Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 in some ways it's not the same but in others it is...

No one just me and him. And I am no FAC holder but I am wanting to get one thou, I know that he was going to commit a crime but I did not throw the object he did and if I get in trouble because he lied well he owns me big time. I kept on telling the boy not to do it but he ignored me and then I just said well if you do throw it, throw it at your own risk and dont blame me if you get caught. Im not sure but I think the driver was one of his next door neighbors so see what happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MM Posted March 18, 2008 Report Share Posted March 18, 2008 what coating was on the egg at the time? what type of breadcrumbs were you using, were they of heavy gauge? if your "mate" walks around with loaded eggs on view, there is any issue here. are you sensible enough to be carrying around eggs from one shoot to another? you Firearms Egging Officer (FEO) might want to speak to you about this. now, first thing you need to do, is give you "mate" a talking to. have you told his parents? just make sure you stop hanging around with this div.

Thanks DF DF having read your post several times my take on this is that having just turned 23yrs old you should by now have entered the adult world with all its responsibilities and concerns, instead you seem, from your post, to be still in waltermitty land. You describe this person as a boy and I assume from that he is a juvenile, you should not have allowed him to steal the egg from your home never mind stayed in his company when he told you of his intentions. To throw an object at a moving vehicle is not clever, the driver may have swerved into the path of another vehicle or worse onto the pavement, he would not have known what it was being thrown at him, many drivers have been killed by bricks and stones thrown by idiots. By making no effort to stop him and remaining in his company while he carried out the act imo makes you an accessory to the crime,you will be lucky if the police do not take this line and charge you. As to being granted a licence to possess a shotgun, draw your own conclusions D2D Edited March 18, 2008 by dusk2dawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
