Antiques Dealer Closes Shop Amid Rising Crime
Description
A legendary antiques dealer with fifty years in Chelsea is shutting down his iconic London shop after brutal armed robberies, hammer assaults, and escalating crime — all blamed on Mayor Sadiq Khan’s failure to protect the city. At 78, Ian Towning endured traumatic attacks, including one that stole £365,000 in jewelry and left him bloodied and traumatized. Despite insurance falling short and security costs soaring, he refuses to quit his passion — still helping people find treasures while demanding safety returns to the streets he loved.
