    “"One of the suspects is black, in his mid to late 30s, about 5ft 6ins, stocky and with short black hair. The others are white and aged 25 to 35"

    Why does the LM mention the ethnicity of the criminals, and why do the mention the bleck one first? surely white should be mentioned first since there is two of them?”
