If this is true i fail to understand how somebody can go uncharged after even carrying a knife, it was the same with the two footballers at the Poppies ground who fought with a knife no police action, it sends out the wrong message yet again

This is a very unfortunate incident and my thoughts go to Ben Selby recovering from by the sounds of it a terrible, thoughtless attack.
I've just heard this afternoon that the individual is an Iraqi national that's fled whom was my former barber in Charminster!
Has Dorset Police got interpretation problems or is this another occasion where human rights policy allowed a foreign national to flee?
Just compelled to put my eight quids worth into the feed...
