News reaches the ILMC Squealer that the UK police had
a nasty surprise after they arrested three people who were allegedly
trying to organise an illegal rave on the Harfrey Business Park in East Anglia.
The
police ('rozzers' is a slang word for the boys in blue) arrested the
three and confiscated vehicles and equipment but then found that their
police station in Great Yarmouth was under siege from over 100
(presumably annoyed) ravers who threw bottles, cans and stones at the
police in the early hours of Sunday morning.
It took police in full
riot gear to quell the gathering outside the station and another 200
officers were needed to break up the illegal gathering.
The police have
substantial powers to stop raves granted under the UK's Crimninal
Justice and Public Order Act 1994 but the Act has been rarely used as
it was somewhat clumsily brought in as rave culture died out in the
late nineties.
