Ian Towning, an antiques dealer who appears on Channel 4 and has been associated with “Dickinson’s Real Deal” and “Posh Pawn,” says he is closing his Chelsea shop after being injured in two armed robberies. According to reports, Towning was left bloodied in the incidents and has linked his decision to wider concerns about violent crime in London. He specifically criticizes London Mayor Sadiq Khan, saying the mayor has failed to tackle violent crime, and he frames that as a factor in his store closure. The reports describe the store being targeted twice and Towning’s account of the aftermath, including his injuries. The coverage attributes the closure to Towning’s response to the robberies rather than to any official action or court outcome. The information focuses on Towning’s statements about the impact of the crimes and his criticism of the mayor, with limited details provided publicly about the circumstances of the robberies, any suspects, or police progress.
