19 year old Lyon Elis walks with the confidence of a man who’s seen it, been there, done it and came out the other side.
It’s the gangster limp that underlines this person as a bad man, a man who it would be best not to mess with. He’s obviously been shot, stabbed or received shrapnel from his daring exploits in the dark criminal underworld.
WALKING NORMALLY
Unfortunately for Lyon, his little sister shared a video on TikTok from a recent family outing at Twycross Zoo. It was an innocent share of her brother Lyon walking with his mother towards the flamingo enclosure but there was something amiss. Lyon was walking normally, there was no sign of his gunshot injury.
TikTok erupted with comments from people that knew Lyon from Wolverhampton, the city he grew up in. There was astonishment that the well known gangster did not have the limp, did he get surgery, was it the camera angle or was he faking it?
As days went by, internet sleuths dug up more footage. On a holiday in Spain last year he was filmed walking on a beach with no limp. Another clip was of Lyon at a wedding dancing with his granny 8 months ago, no limp.
SHOT WITH AK47
After 2 weeks of further evidence appearing Lyon made a statement:
“You don’t know what it’s like out on those streets fam. I’ve had that limp for 9 years after I was off school with flu for 2 weeks and when I went back I told everyone I was limping from getting shot with an AK47 while running powder for the Colombians.”
Community police officer Wyne Swishens told Newsishy:
“I’ve known Lyon for 10 years, used to be a lovely lad but towards the end of school he started acting up. I’ve had him for nicking sweets, tagging fences, throwing stones at buses, you know the usual petty stuff. He’s definitely a little shit but my cat Terence is more of a gangster than him and Terence does actually have a limp from a fight he had with a fox.”
Since being outed Lyon has turned his life around and enrolled in college study poetry:
“It’s such a relief just being myself, the limp defined me. Now that I have discarded that camouflage there’s a whole world open to me and I intend to take full advantage of it.”
