A new series of BBC's The Detectives shows how far gangs will go to assert control on an area
“Some… lad’s just took my mate’s hand off with an axe,” a panicked 999 caller tells the operator. “His hand is nearly off.”
The clip is from the opening for new BBC documentary The Detectives: Taking Down An OCG, which returns to TV screens tonight . It shines a light on how drug gangs operate — including bribing witnesses, grooming children, and using extreme levels of violence to assert their authority on an estate. “Four or five cars turned up with people in. I pushed myself to the front of the crowd telling everyone to calm down.”
“The axe went through the top of my wrist and then it shattered my bone. I remember absolutely every single second of that day.”
