It is fortunate that it was only a small piece although as we all know any firework can cause serious damage or injury.

Mindless ****ing idiots is what i say and they should be strung up!

Default Shop Attack

Got quite a good look at her face on that footage - I'd be afraid to go out if I were her

Err... I don't think it was the girl in the pink top that threw it!

First viewpoint you see the "hoodies" lurking outside and she walks past them into the entrance, stopping to stub out her cigarette (would she bother to do that if she was involved?)

Second viewpoint, you can just see the kid who threw it appear behind her. She seems to throw her arms about in panic as she sees it go past her.

It's not uncommon.... How many people swore blind they saw Jean Charles De Menezes jump over the barrier whilst running into the tube station, when he did nothing of the sort?

part of the group yes, but didn't know what was planned (or at least that it was planned for that moment)

I remember something like this happening in a shop by me. I was talking to a friend in the local Bargain Booze when someone flings the door open and throws in a fairly big Cat 3 rocket. It shot all round the shop before bursting by the spirits and shattering a handful of Vodka bottles. Not a nice experience!

Looks like she was genuinely going in to the shop then one of her boyfriends or fathers of her babies threw it in as she was about to enter, she realised what was going on, turnt and ran away too
