Illegal party at Bellevue apparently (20min) and police using tear gas to clear it. We drove through in the car 30 min ago and had no idea what was going on. There were loud shots and i also cowered on the floor!

Been living here for just over a week and there are youths running round in balaclavas, fires in my street and the front door of my block of flats has been kicked in.
Why did I leave south London?

Tear gas & rubber bullets for an illegal party? That can only lead to bad news. I'm sure they could find a better way to clear out a bunch of kids.

Cheers for the good wishes. I'm back and safe, but nauseous and pretty p*ssed off!
Some teenagers obviously didn't get enough money for the merry-go-round up in Albisgütli (Knabenschiessen fun fair).
