ellis206 0 Posted June 19, 2015 Just heard from someone who knows him that the hotel he was staying at was attacked by armed gunman who shot 8 people in Crete.Apparently he went down to the hotel to warm up a baby bottle and heard all the gunfire, phoned up to his missus and told her to hide in the wardrobe. Must be a horrendous ordeal especially with all your family in the hotel!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lessingham Canary 108 Posted June 19, 2015 The shooting in Crete was not in a hotel, it happened in a logistics warehouse where people were working, the gunman shot himself after shooting at other workers, don''t know how close it was to any hotel, not nice either way, but definitely not in any hotel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ellis206 0 Posted June 19, 2015 Ahhh maybe it was near the hotel, apparently they were robbing jewellery. Anyhow, not nice. I remember being in Egypt a few years back and constantly hearing gunfire, not pleasant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lessingham Canary 108 Posted June 19, 2015 Not what you want when you go on holiday, unless you are Kate Adie of course. Would put a damper on his hols if close by though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can''t imagine how scary that must have been, he walked right in to it apparently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
