Help wanted please. I am appealing for anyone who witnessed an unsavoury incident in Buckingham Road at circa 5 pm last evening between two males who had an altercation which resulted in my car being damaged. Despite the many, many, people who witnessed the incident the police only managed to find one witness. Can anyone who did witness the incident, and is prepared to provide an independent statement, please email me on kim@unbiasedifa.co.uk, with full details. Thanks for anyone that can help!

Someone posted something on twitter making reference to a car door....I think the poster assumed one of those involved owned the car - have you seen that post or do you need it finding?

Thanks for your help. No I did not see that as I am not a user of Twitter. Do you have the persons details?

Hi,
I left straight after the match and walked the length of Buckingham Road. Didn't see a thing unfortunately.
Everyone seemed in fairly good spirits eating their free Nando's crisps.
Have you tried contacting the club? The parking seems quite monitored and for some reason I noticed more stewards than normal. Hopefully they can help? Or there might be some CCTV?
Anyhow.. I've stickied your post to the top of the forum for a while, hopefully someone will mention something.

Thanks for your assistance. Despite there being loads of people milling about at the time, all of whom were very supportive our friends in the police managed to find only one witness who has not proved helpful to the matter. Thus the conclusion drawn is that the damage caused to my motor vehicle was accidental. Ha.! Ha! Someone hurls my son five feet with such force to shatter the glass of the passenger door of my car and occasion scratches to the door itself, and also cutting his jacket, and this has been caused accidentally! In addition my son required medical assistance from two paramedics for cuts to his hands.
I am told the guy is a season ticket holder, so someone will know him!
Oh, and surprise, surprise, the CCTV was switched off!
Someone who saw the incident and actually saw what happened would be most useful in the circumstances.

Try the independent Forum there seems to be a big thread on this incident on there
I find it quite interesting about what you where told re CCTV My car was broken into on Buckingham Road earlier this year the police informed me that there isn't 1 bit of CCTV on Buckingham Rd or on the outside of the ground at all!!!!!!!

Thanks for the information bigron. The gentleman with the long black hair and black sweater was the individual who caused the problem, and it certainly was not me. Sadly I was the one whose car suffered the £1,000 + of damage, and whose son was assaulted! And to everybody out there I am, indeed, an Orient fan who has been going to matches since the 1966/1967 season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only Admin or a Moderator can take a post down so maybe ask why they took that course of action
RichmondO is the admin over there
City Slacker is the Moderator
I think assissi only informed you that it had been mentioned on Twitter I don't think that deems as coming forward does it?

Now I'm not blaming anyone as I was actually in Greece on Saturday but on the other forum they were saying that the driver of the car was at fault as he purposefully reversed into a group of 'innocent' fans.
However I would take what they say over there with a pinch of salt.
Was it all Orient fans involved or did away fans get involved too?

Hey kbola, I was in Greece on Saturday too, the lengths people will go to to avoid a home game eh? Re the thread, I saw the tweet from lordgriff and linked it to OP that's all, was just trying to be helpful.
