Long arm of the law

Recently a Beatles fan was watching a live web cam of an area in Liverpool associated with the Beatles, the Cavern Club. While checking the scene out, he noticed some people attempting to break-in to a sporting goods store. What did he do? He called the local constabulary in Merseyside who sent officers to Mathew Street where 3 people were arrested.

Sensor platforms like cameras combined with the power and volume of interest on the Internet really does extend our reach. Let’s hope it’s used for good more often than evil.
