Stories from the Front Line - Injunction


Very Q (quiet) first night shift (Friday) of our set of 7 nights.
Went to a domestic where our caller said his wife had 'stabbed' his new girlfriend (already, I have questions).
We got there, it actually turned out that it was a very minor cut with a potato knife - but the 999 call had been very dramatic.
He was there, pissed, covered in bumps, cuts and bruises - turns out his wife's new boyfriend had given him a right beating.
It was like an episode of Jeremy Kyle, trying to work out who was sleeping with who now, and who had hit / stabbed / abused who. At one point I asked if his wife had ever breached a civil injunction to which he replied, "yeah, she took out a 12-month non molestation order on me, and 6 months later she married me!"
One in custody.
