I received the following email from a reliable source today and I feel it should be shared. Even if its a hoax, I think I'll still be cautious, as I know there are idiots out there. I'm not sure which fellow Surfer on here is the paramedic, but maybe enquire within their field and possibly, they could shed some light on the subject??
(should have added)
Apparently this is a finding by the London Ambulance Service and D.A.R.E which have been monitoring activities concerning street gangs, mostly in the London regions.
