Eton suspends pupils over 'mugging'

"Four pupils have been suspended from Eton College over an incident involving a teenage girl on the school playing field.

The 13-year-old girl, not linked to the school, was apparently attacked and her handbag stolen.

The Eton pupils, who called themselves "The Posse", were suspended after the incident on Monday night. The school has not yet called the police.

An inquiry has been set up but Anthony Little, the head master, declined to discuss it".

Poor little sods. Must be something to do with their upbringing. Broken homes, dysfunctional families, etc, etc.

UPDATE: The Times carries a more fuller report and it appears more serious than I first thought. A senior politician's grandson is involved in a sexual assault upon the girl.
