The gallant watch man raised an alarm and wrestled the thugs.The lights were smashed and teargas was used to blind the eyes of the occupants,after which the station was set on fire. The latest reports indicate that the rest of the staff on duty, including the DJ escaped unharmed. George Christensen is currently at a medical facility receiving treatment for burns he suffered as a result of this henious act. This is the situation as it stands now. May God save our country.
