...AND FINALLY...
Manchester cops this week slammed a mystery Moss Side rapper, who has made over seven hundred 999 calls in the last three months alone.
A one-man campaign bringing ‘no justice, no peace’ (or quiet) back to the police, he bombards the switchboard with calls in which he raps, preaches and plays loud music to the helpless operators - who aren’t supposed to hang up in case vital information comes out.
Obviously not Hip Hop fans, fuming top brass have complained about the caller wasting police time and that it’s not even real music – all shouty, no singing. Despite attempts to track the man down – he has used and discarded over 60 mobiles - so far they haven’t found anyone to take the rap.
Police are now appealing to the public to track the 999 spitter down so they can lay down some fresh beats of their own. Will the real SIM Shady please stand up?
