Armed police have stormed a family's home after spotting a teenage son playing with a toy gun in his bedroom.The assumption is the people are the enemy.
Officers had staked out the home of solicitor John Trimbos before smashing down the door of his Victorian mansion flat in Belsize Park, north London.
The police were tipped off by someone staying in a nearby hotel...
Mr Trimbos, his wife, Lucy, and their two sons, Olly and seven-year-old Felix, had just finished their family dinner when the firearms officers burst through their front door.
He and and his eldest son were handcuffed and taken outside for an hour while police searched their flat - finding only the plastic pellet-firing toy replica.
And I'm sure the enuretic snitch feels indignantly justified.
