Police hunt mystery person walking streets as 17th-century plague doctor during coronavirus outbreak
Police in Norfolk are keen to speak to a person who has been spotted dressed up as a 17th-century plague doctor on walks during the coronavirus lockdown.
The unidentified individual has been spotted in the Norwich suburb of Hellesdon wearing a long black cloak, a hat and a pointed beak-like mask in recent weeks.
People posting on a community Facebook page said the outfit could frighten children, and Norfolk Police said they wanted to give “words of advice” to the person.
Jade Gosbell, 21, took a photograph of the person walking across a recreation ground in Hellesdon.
This is what the cops are worried about? How about all the Muslim grooming/rape gangs? Nah, that would be raaaaacist and Islamophobic, you know
“It’s clearly for attention or something like that, because normal people just wouldn’t do that.â€
It’s 2020. Of course it is for attention. Have we not seen all the Instagram and other social media stuff these days?
The furloughed gym worker continued: “I was sitting there and I was getting angry myself as my mum has a phobia of masks.
“I know that even in daylight if she was to go round the corner and bump into him she would be so scared.
“Kids would be frightened, my mum would be frightened, however some people really don’t think it’s that deep, they just think that he’s having a laugh, he’s just trying to find something to do with himself during isolation and lockdown.â€
In other words, she was Offended, hence, someone else has to be forced to live her Feelings.
She said she has not seen the person since a Facebook post drew attention to them, adding: “I was told that if I see him again to call the police.â€
Really? Call the police? For wearing a costume? WTF? Most likely this was a one off thing with someone getting a shot for social media, they’ve now moved on. The Norfolk police said
“Although no offences have been committed at this time, officers are keen to trace the individual in order to provide words of advice about the implications of his actions on the local community.
They don’t have anything better to do than hassle someone over a costume?
