Read the original article on standard.co.uk (opens in a new tab)The Evening Standard reports vandalism to School Streets signs on Cazenove Road in Hackney. It attributes the police investigation, the programme figures and the vandalism counts to their sources. It lets parents, residents and the council speak, and leaves a resident's guess about who cut the signs in his own words.
“The Metropolitan Police force is investigating reports of criminal damage to street signs in Cazenove Road, Hackney”
It names the force, the offence, the place and the date, and S3 adds that no arrests have been made, so the reader knows the matter is unresolved.
“You don’t know who’s done this, but you wouldn’t do this unless you had a very specific interest in driving down this road”
The guess about who did it stays in a named resident's mouth, with his own admission that the culprit is unknown, rather than in the outlet's voice.
“According to the UK Government , with 50 active School Streets, Hackney has the largest programme of this kind in the UK.”
It gives the figure with its source attached instead of stating it as the outlet's own fact.
