Three Scary Incidents in Brixton and SW London
Just before 11pm on Tuesday 10 October, a man lunged at a woman as she entered a home on Barrington Road, Brixton. After a brief struggle, the woman fought him off and he fled the scene.
Then, in the early hours of Friday 17 November, a woman walking down Sisters Avenue, SW11, spotted a man trailing her near 4am. She shouted loudly, forcing him to sprint away.
