UK Student Hurls Fire Extinguisher At Police From Rooftop – Charged With Attempted Murder [VIDEO]

UK student, Edward Woollard, has been sentenced to two years and eight months behind bars for violent disorder. What kind of violent disorder, you might ask? The kind of violent disorder that sees you lob a large fire extinguisher at the potentially mushy heads of policemen eight stories below you. And he got very close. Watch the video after the break.

With a face like this, he was bound to do something crazy at some point. Right? That’s not the face of an student. That’s the face of deranged humanities academic who wakes up with no memory next to empty box-wine cartons and a quiet, deep and persistent desire to overthrow the status quo with bloody and swift revolution. And he takes gender studies.

In any event, he got a small shot at his goal yesterday afternoon.

Edward Woollard joined a group of protesters who stormed inside Millbank House – the Tory Party headquarters.

Several dozen people smashed their way inside the complex, breaking furniture and windows, while others chanted and lit fires outside.

Thousands of students traveled to London on November 10 to demonstrate against government plans to increase tuition fee costs to up to £9,000 a year.

n a written statement to police, Woollard apologised for what he had done and said he handed himself in after finding out his face was being shown on television.

That’s a good move, Edward. There was no possible way that you were going to get away with this once your face was on the goggle box – not when you look like the lovechild of Bill Bailey and Def Leppard drummer, Rick Allen.
