Caught a criminal on your phone?

erpolice.gif Members of the public who catch criminals red-handed by filming them on mobile phones can now upload pictures directly on to the police website.

A new multi-media innovation on Greater Manchester Police's website allows still photographs and videos to be contributed anonymously by people who may have captured vital evidence on their phone or portable camera.

The idea was initially brought in as part of the police's fight against terrorism.
