A POSTMAN has been attacked outside a busy supermarket this lunch time.
At about 12 noon the driver of a post van was seen being dragged out of his vehicle, before being pushed and punched by two men outside Tesco on Tring Road.

One eye witness described the attack as quite vicious and he was pushed into a car, smashing the wing mirror.

The witness said that he was cowering to try and protect himself, and that the attack appeared unprovoked.

Hope the postman makes a full and speedy recovery from this unprovoked attack.

I blame Tesco. They always have all their security staff inside the building, only interested in preventing shoplifting, not interested in the wellbeing of the public.

Security staff have no jurisdiction outside of the walls of any building.

Isn't that what they suppose to be doing, which is keeping an eye on shop lifting, they are not police, they are paid to protect the stored and it contents :crazy:
