:01:17. > :01:20.for dead on the street. Help us find the driver responsible.

:01:20. > :01:27.Our team is travelling around the country, and we stopped this week

:01:27. > :01:33.with the Met Police in London. We are right in the middle of it into

:01:33. > :01:38.how the square. What is happening? Good morning, I am right in the

:01:38. > :01:43.middle of it, in one of the capital city's busiest tourist spots. Later,

:01:44. > :01:48.we find out how you can keep yourself and your belongings safe

:01:48. > :01:55.and we will have a hands-on preview of the police car of the future. And

:01:55. > :01:59.you will have gadget envy! First, we need your help to solve a

:01:59. > :02:04.series of sex assaults in east London. Release in Canning Town say

:02:04. > :02:07.the same man has attacked number of women there -- police in Canning

:02:07. > :02:13.Town. They are worried he might strike again.

:02:13. > :02:21.London's Docklands. This predator's hunting ground. He has been

:02:21. > :02:30.assaulting women here for two years. Zoe is in her 40s and has lived in

:02:30. > :02:35.Royal Victoria Dock for six years. She is not -- Zoe is not her real

:02:35. > :02:40.name, and her words spoken by an actor. I had an apartment looking

:02:40. > :02:46.over the dock, it was a really nice area, I felt very safe, a one-minute

:02:46. > :02:54.walk to the railway, an ideal location. That night, she was out

:02:54. > :03:01.with friends. I had arranged to meet some friends in the city. It was the

:03:01. > :03:06.opening of a new venue. At around 11pm, she left the bar in London

:03:06. > :03:10.Bridge and caught the Docklands light Railway home. Her station,

:03:10. > :03:15.Royal Victoria, was just a two-minute walk from her apartment

:03:15. > :03:19.building I could see my apartment and from the train. I had only had a

:03:19. > :03:25.couple of drinks, I was aware of my surroundings. Just a normal journey

:03:25. > :03:29.home after a night out. I thought, I have done this before, it is very

:03:29. > :03:34.safe, I did not think anything more of it. This shows her arriving at

:03:34. > :03:40.her building. A man was loitering outside the front door, talking on

:03:40. > :03:45.the phone. She noticed he was staring at her. It alarmed me. It

:03:45. > :03:50.was almost as if she was -- he was pretending to be on the phone,

:03:50. > :03:54.messing around on the keypad to get into the apartment. He said, I

:03:54. > :04:01.cannot get into the apartments, my friend is in there, and he will not

:04:01. > :04:06.let me in. I said, it says clearly, you cannot come in unless you have a

:04:06. > :04:10.key fob or somebody lets you in. buzzed herself in but the man

:04:10. > :04:15.started to follow her into the building. I walked towards the left

:04:15. > :04:20.and he was behind me. I felt very threatened. I did not know why he

:04:20. > :04:28.was there. I did not know what his intentions were. It was at that

:04:28. > :04:32.point something in my head said, do not get into the lift. I suddenly

:04:32. > :04:36.realised he had no intention of going anywhere, but to speak to me

:04:36. > :04:42.and engage in conversation. Suddenly, he started shouting at

:04:42. > :04:49.Zoe. You think I am a bad man, don't you? You do not like me being here

:04:49. > :04:54.because of my colour. She was trapped by the lifts. He grabbed her

:04:54. > :04:58.arms and sexually assaulted her. was really frightened. I thought, I

:04:58. > :05:03.do not know what he is going to do. I started screaming and screaming

:05:03. > :05:08.and asked him to leave me alone. It was at that point, thankfully, he

:05:08. > :05:18.turned and ran into the lobby, saw there was a button, pressed it and

:05:18. > :05:21.ran off. The man was then caught on CCTV leaving the apartment block.

:05:21. > :05:29.Terrified that the attacker could still be around, Zoe ran down the

:05:29. > :05:34.stairs to the underground car park. I did not know what to do. I have

:05:34. > :05:40.got no phone signal, I am panicking, thinking, I am in the car

:05:40. > :05:46.park, what do I do? Even if I go out of the gates, I am back on the

:05:46. > :05:51.streets. Will he be there? I was quite hysterical. I was crying.

:05:51. > :05:55.then, her neighbours drove into the car park and called the police. The

:05:55. > :06:00.police believe the man who attacked her has also sexually assaulted

:06:00. > :06:06.three other women. The most recent of these attacks happened in May

:06:06. > :06:09.this year, again, the man was caught on CCTV at the Royal Victoria

:06:09. > :06:17.station before he got into the lobby of another apartment block on the

:06:17. > :06:23.same road as Surrey's. Abbey is not the victim's real name, her words

:06:23. > :06:28.are spoken by an actor. My apartment is opposite the station, so I

:06:28. > :06:34.entered the lobby, I felt there was somebody behind me. He followed me

:06:35. > :06:40.to come in, but I did not pay attention. Suddenly, the man came

:06:40. > :06:46.right in front of her and sexually assaulted her. He just grabbed me

:06:46. > :06:53.and said something like, keep silent. I was very frightened at the

:06:53. > :07:01.same time, and I screamed, help. police say he needs to be taught,

:07:01. > :07:08.urgently. My concerns are that we have four linked sexual assaults,

:07:08. > :07:14.against females, and my fear is, if we do not catch him, he may offend

:07:14. > :07:20.again. There is sometimes embarrassment about reporting to the

:07:20. > :07:24.police, but we know he has offended on four occasions, so if there are

:07:24. > :07:29.any other people that may have been a victim, I would appeal for them to

:07:29. > :07:34.come forward. These attacks have had a profound effect on both women. Zoe

:07:34. > :07:38.has been so traumatised, she is now too frightened to live in the city.

:07:38. > :07:44.She put her flat on the market and moved away. I do not feel

:07:44. > :07:50.comfortable with men. He has made me more nervous and I will never go

:07:50. > :08:00.anywhere on my own, I will never put myself in that situation again. He

:08:00. > :08:04.has completely destroyed my confidence.

:08:04. > :08:11.Tina Dilworth is one of the officers investigating. It is vital that this

:08:11. > :08:16.man is caught, isn't it, because since that, things have escalated.

:08:16. > :08:21.Yes, we have five victims, all similar attacks that have taken

:08:21. > :08:27.place, the most recent one happened a couple of weeks ago, a woman was

:08:27. > :08:33.followed into her apartment in Canning Town, where a man has gained

:08:33. > :08:38.entry using her key fob, he followed her in, and he assaulted her in the

:08:38. > :08:44.lifts area. Terrible for these victims, all of them have been

:08:44. > :08:49.traumatised, it is the same area, and you have got some CCTV footage

:08:49. > :08:55.of the last attack. The man is seen walking into the apartment

:08:55. > :08:59.building, we get a close look at him. It is frozen because this is

:08:59. > :09:05.the moment that the assault takes place in the lobby. He is trying to

:09:05. > :09:09.get out again, and he is fumbling to get out. It is at this stage that

:09:09. > :09:15.the victim comes in, she is so desperate to get rid of him, she

:09:16. > :09:20.lets him out of the building. presses the button, he leaves.

:09:20. > :09:23.want to catch this man, you think there could be other victims.

:09:23. > :09:28.these incidents have taken place in the same area over two years, we

:09:28. > :09:34.urge anybody, if anything has happened to them of a similar

:09:34. > :09:39.nature, please get in touch. Absolutely vital that you catch him.

:09:39. > :09:43.For people that are concerned, your advice? Please be vigilant, and make

:09:43. > :09:51.sure that you close the doors behind you. If you think you have been

:09:51. > :09:55.followed, dial 999. The incident room number is on the screen.

:09:55. > :09:58.have information, call the number or one of ours.

:09:58. > :10:06.Time for some violent crooks captured on camera. Police need your

:10:06. > :10:10.help to track them down. There are some nasty ones here.

:10:10. > :10:15.January this year in Hillingdon, this man is arguing with a

:10:15. > :10:20.shopkeeper over some cigarettes. The assistant looks on. The man leaves

:10:20. > :10:26.but comes back with his mates and one of them starts having a go.

:10:26. > :10:29.Then, things turned really nasty. The first guy climbs on the counter

:10:29. > :10:34.as his friend grabs a bottle of wine and uses it to threaten the

:10:34. > :10:39.shopkeeper. The one on the counter leans over and steals a bottle of

:10:39. > :10:45.spirits. But watch the one in the hat as he smashes the wine bottle

:10:45. > :10:53.over the shopkeeper's head before strolling out. They must be caught.

:10:53. > :10:58.Please contact us if you know anything about this attack. Hi Ho

:10:58. > :11:03.burned in February of this year. The man walking past has clearly upset

:11:03. > :11:09.the man in the dark jacket entering the shop. He confronts him and they

:11:09. > :11:16.have words in the shop doorway. That seems to be the end of it. They

:11:16. > :11:22.start to walk away. But the angry shopper wants the last word and he

:11:22. > :11:30.runs towards his victim, punching him and knocking him to the ground.

:11:30. > :11:35.Did you know anything about this incident? It is March on a train in

:11:35. > :11:38.London. This man asks a fellow passenger for a cigarette. But it

:11:38. > :11:44.looks like he has taken advantage and has helped himself to more than

:11:44. > :11:48.one. But that is not the end of it. He takes a seat and soon, things are

:11:48. > :11:55.getting heated. Watch as he slides a baseball bat out of his trousers

:11:55. > :11:59.will stop it is about to kick off. There is a moment of tension. He

:11:59. > :12:03.stopped beating his fellow passenger violently with the bat. It is a

:12:03. > :12:09.nasty attack. Members of the public eventually step in to calm things

:12:09. > :12:14.down. Police do not know who the good Samaritans are. They are keen

:12:14. > :12:20.to speak to this man, who, with skilful negotiation, eventually

:12:20. > :12:26.disarmed the offender. Police need to catch this book. Do you know who

:12:26. > :12:34.he is? Outrageous. Those folks need to be

:12:34. > :12:42.caught. If you recognise any of them, pick up the phone. You can

:12:42. > :12:52.call, text or e-mail. Do make sure you put the space in your text

:12:52. > :12:56.message after the letters CW. Monday, today, the day of the week

:12:56. > :13:01.that you are most likely to find yourself a victim of street crime in

:13:01. > :13:06.London. If you do carry around valuables such as luck tops and

:13:06. > :13:11.smart phones, beware, because these criminals are becoming more and more

:13:11. > :13:17.brazen. A typical day in central London. But

:13:17. > :13:22.what happened next to these two businessmen is now an all too common

:13:22. > :13:26.sight on the capital's streets. had finished lunch and we were

:13:26. > :13:34.having a cup of coffee, winding down, and from nowhere, the laptop

:13:34. > :13:39.was gone. All I saw was a courier walking towards me, in central

:13:39. > :13:45.London, there are careers walking everywhere. I did not expect him to

:13:45. > :13:50.grab the laptop. There was no way of catching him, and as soon as he got

:13:50. > :13:55.on the scooter, the laptop was history. Smart phones and computers

:13:55. > :13:58.have become highly prized and easy targets for would-be thieves. What

:13:58. > :14:03.happened to David and his colleague is getting more and more

:14:03. > :14:09.commonplace. While other forms of crime are falling, the theft of

:14:09. > :14:15.mobile phones and other high-tech gadgets is steadily increasing. Up

:14:15. > :14:19.17% in the last year alone. The robbery squad car based at Kentish

:14:19. > :14:26.Town police station covers the whole of the busy Borough of Camden. I

:14:27. > :14:29.went along with Cliff Walsh and Matt Newman to find out about the new

:14:29. > :14:34.sophisticated methods thieves are using on the streets of London these

:14:34. > :14:44.days. Starting off on the night shift, heading away from the police

:14:44. > :14:44.

:14:44. > :14:49.station, what do you do? Is it a route you follow? That Carr said

:14:49. > :14:55.there had been two snatches. Everyone is making their way to

:14:55. > :14:59.cross, Euston, we will go down that way, and hopefully curtail any more

:14:59. > :15:04.snatches. Later on Camden Town will become busier when people are out

:15:04. > :15:09.drinking and become easy targets. These using mopeds or bikes to

:15:09. > :15:15.quickly escape the scene of a theft have dramatically increased over the

:15:15. > :15:24.last few years. He mentioned mopeds crime-buster power they work in the

:15:24. > :15:28.mopeds? What do? They usually have the rider, they are cheeky enough to

:15:28. > :15:33.ride onto the pavement, then the pillion will grab the phone of the

:15:33. > :15:38.person. Before they have realised what is going on. Will they go on to

:15:39. > :15:44.target other people? It has been known that one mopeds can do five or

:15:44. > :15:49.six in an hour. Even iPhone is worth �100 per person, if you could do

:15:49. > :15:54.five or six, for an hour, that is �600 an hour. I don't know anyone

:15:54. > :15:59.earning that sort of money. If they see somebody on a mopeds, they

:15:59. > :16:02.become suspicious. They start to follow this one but it turns out

:16:02. > :16:09.there is nothing untoward about these riders at all. They then catch

:16:09. > :16:15.sight of another suspicious scooter. It is a two up my bed, which catches

:16:15. > :16:19.our interest. They seem to be looking around, it seems to be a

:16:19. > :16:28.tell-tale sign they are looking for a phone or something to steal.

:16:28. > :16:38.will keep an eye on them. We are trying to. With the mopeds appearing

:16:38. > :16:45.

:16:45. > :16:50.from view, the offices attempt to -- see him for anything now. It is

:16:50. > :16:55.trying to strike a balance between being close enough, should something

:16:55. > :16:59.happen, but without letting them know we are there. The good thing

:16:59. > :17:04.is, they have been seen on CCTV now, we have a description of their

:17:04. > :17:10.helmets, so if they are, or were with criminal intent and looking to

:17:10. > :17:18.steal phones, we will hear that and go back to our CCTV and be able to

:17:18. > :17:22.get the registration number. That is something. But with more than

:17:22. > :17:27.100,000 mobile phone stolen in London last year, that is 300 day,

:17:27. > :17:34.the challenge facing the officers on the ground is immense. Another call

:17:35. > :17:39.comes in about a mobile phone theft. The officers raced to the scene.

:17:39. > :17:48.This robbery has just happened, details are scanned. It is a witness

:17:48. > :17:54.rather than a victim. It's as like I picked him as well. It might be he

:17:54. > :18:00.is chasing his suspect or he might be making his way home. The suspects

:18:00. > :18:08.have made. With no sign of the victim or the fees, it is the less

:18:08. > :18:11.frustrating night. But they will be out again tomorrow. These crafty

:18:11. > :18:15.crooks are difficult to catch, especially when they are on two

:18:15. > :18:22.wheels. So before you make that call open that laptop, just be aware of

:18:22. > :18:25.them may be watching you. They are scalawags, they need to be caught,

:18:25. > :18:32.they need to be caught quickly. Because they are doing this every

:18:32. > :18:35.day in the West End. We saw how difficult it can be to

:18:35. > :18:39.follow suspected criminals on two wheels from a police car, but how

:18:39. > :18:44.about on one of these, it might be easier. To people who know all about

:18:44. > :18:48.weaving through the streets of London art Duncan Wright and Laura

:18:48. > :18:55.Carlin from the Met 's motorbike unit. You have to get to base is

:18:55. > :18:58.pretty quickly, is it easier on two wheels in London? Our main priority

:18:58. > :19:05.is getting to and responding to the incident as quickly as possible. At

:19:05. > :19:10.the same time, as safely as possible. We need to not let it

:19:10. > :19:15.affect mems of the public. It seems scary to a lot of people, but

:19:16. > :19:19.Duncan, you saw in the film that these would be common is take

:19:19. > :19:26.advantage of every back alley, even the pavement, to get away from the

:19:26. > :19:31.police, but this is a priority, to catch these guys. Absolutely. We do

:19:31. > :19:35.need to get them, these motorbikes are good, high visibility

:19:35. > :19:39.deterrents. In Camden and Islington they have dedicated crime units that

:19:39. > :19:43.ride motorbikes, they have good local knowledge. The same knowledge

:19:43. > :19:50.that the offenders have of back alleys and streets and parkways.

:19:50. > :19:55.They are able to follow the offenders and catch them. Thieves

:19:55. > :20:00.are busy don't limit their opportunities to on the road. --

:20:00. > :20:03.obviously. Off-road there are those who will seat any opportunity to

:20:03. > :20:08.steal your stuff. I went to Covent Garden to meet an officer who knows

:20:08. > :20:14.all about the tricks of the trade of these street thieves. He says it is

:20:14. > :20:16.up to us to keep an eye on our valuables. A lovely sunny day,

:20:16. > :20:22.people are out here enjoying themselves, don't want to think

:20:22. > :20:25.about crime. They don't, and I don't want them to be fearful, but there

:20:25. > :20:30.are a sick precautions, like zipping up handbags, putting your wallets

:20:30. > :20:34.away, not leaving your bags on the back of chairs. They will help us

:20:34. > :20:44.help them. If you look at almost every table, there is a case in

:20:44. > :20:45.

:20:45. > :20:52.point. You walked away with it very easily. It is classic. It is your

:20:52. > :20:57.life on there, isn't it? Take care of it, please. Thank you! I think

:20:57. > :21:02.she was pretty shocked. She didn't know where it had gone to the

:21:02. > :21:11.moment. This lady is looking at me dubiously. She won't catch the

:21:11. > :21:15.person who grabs her handbag. What is it got in it? Your life! I think

:21:15. > :21:20.this is one of our primary roles, I'm not increasing the fear of crime

:21:20. > :21:24.I am just trawling peoples attention to what possibly could happen and

:21:24. > :21:29.stopping them becoming victims. They could go home after a really good

:21:29. > :21:34.day out, but with all their possessions. That was without any

:21:34. > :21:37.rehearsal, just walking along, it could have been anywhere. Each time

:21:37. > :21:42.you lose something like that, part of your life disappears. If you have

:21:42. > :21:45.a handbag, just put the chair leg over the handle and it won't be

:21:45. > :21:52.dragged away. Thieves will not go for a difficult target, they will go

:21:52. > :21:58.for something easy and move on. Good advice there, we could all do

:21:58. > :22:02.with a John about! It is getting dizzy here this morning,

:22:02. > :22:07.particularly in the streets. PC Darren Bond is with us from

:22:07. > :22:14.Westminster 's big team. We need to be careful of more than just the

:22:14. > :22:18.traffic, I understand. Crossings like this, 20 or 30 people will be

:22:18. > :22:23.waiting to cross the road, it is an ideal time for a pickpocket to get

:22:23. > :22:26.up close behind members of the public. They wouldn't expect anybody

:22:26. > :22:30.to be around them, natural to them to be stood next to them, they are

:22:30. > :22:35.distracted, looking at the traffic. It is a good time for them to get up

:22:35. > :22:42.nice and close, use something like a coat, over, the hand will be in the

:22:42. > :22:46.bag and they will be away with your post. It was as easy as that, and of

:22:46. > :22:49.course you are distracted by the traffic in London. Lots of people

:22:49. > :22:54.around on the pavement, I am going to be very careful putting that back

:22:54. > :22:57.into my bag! Some of your colleagues have come along to show us a little

:22:57. > :23:04.bit about the type of things you are up against. What with the scenario

:23:04. > :23:08.be here? This could be a coffee shop, a shoe shop, where the victim

:23:08. > :23:13.is sitting distracted on the phone, talking to a friend or trying a shoe

:23:13. > :23:16.on, the pickpocket X advantage of that to take a whole bag. Using

:23:16. > :23:22.something like a coat to shield their actions from other people or

:23:22. > :23:26.the victim. There are a great deal of Constable are doing on the

:23:26. > :23:31.streets of London, not just London, of course. It is something people

:23:31. > :23:35.around the country have to be aware of. Unfortunately they are very

:23:35. > :23:43.creative in the way they go to separate you from your cash or

:23:43. > :23:51.belongings one trick they like to use... Is that your ring? I just

:23:51. > :24:01.found this ring on the floor. Do you want to give me five or �10 for it?

:24:01. > :24:01.

:24:01. > :24:07.It is a gold ring. Give me five or �10 for it? People might be tempted

:24:07. > :24:10.to think I have got a gold ring that doesn't belong to anybody. A lot of

:24:10. > :24:13.honest people come and hand them into the stations, some people think

:24:13. > :24:18.they are getting something for nothing. The trickster walks away

:24:18. > :24:24.with your hard earned cash. We are injured Albert Square, a busy

:24:24. > :24:29.tourist spot. People visit London for all sorts of reasons, and we can

:24:29. > :24:34.all be victims. These strictures will particularly target tourists,

:24:34. > :24:42.who are more Ballmer ball. But unfortunately Londoners are also

:24:42. > :24:45.victims. They can help us as well as the plainclothes officers. Hopefully

:24:45. > :24:51.we have made you a bit more aware this morning of some of the tricks

:24:51. > :24:56.that are going on. Time to take a look at today's

:24:56. > :25:00.Wanted Faces. Police forces around the country are asking your help to

:25:00. > :25:06.find these men. This is Khalid Saeed, sentenced to six years in

:25:06. > :25:11.prison for possession of a firearm, released early on licence. He is now

:25:11. > :25:18.wanted back in jail. He is five foot eight and although his eyes are

:25:18. > :25:23.closed here, they are apparently Brown. It was Mark Robert Cruz 's

:25:23. > :25:28.birthday last week. He is wanted in election with the production of

:25:28. > :25:33.�10,000 worth of cannabis in Cardiff. He previously had a surname

:25:33. > :25:38.Hinton and is often known by his nickname, Tutty. Police believe he

:25:38. > :25:40.originally fled to Spain but could be back in the UK. This slightly

:25:41. > :25:47.miserable looking 42-year-old is Paul Goodman, jailed for three years

:25:47. > :25:51.for drug dealing in May 2011 but released early on licence. He failed

:25:51. > :25:58.to stick to his conditions and is wanted on a recall. His right ear

:25:58. > :26:02.has a large chunk missing out of it. And this is Mohammed Nazir, he

:26:02. > :26:05.failed to appear before Burnley magistrates back in December 2008 in

:26:05. > :26:09.connection with the supply of heroin. A warrant was issued for his

:26:09. > :26:15.arrest. He has links to the Lancashire area, in particular

:26:15. > :26:25.Nelson. If you recognise any of these faces, the phone, text us or

:26:25. > :26:27.

:26:27. > :26:31.e-mail us. Still to come: the War veteran who helped keep London

:26:31. > :26:36.safe, left fighting for his life at the side of the road.

:26:36. > :26:40.Can you tell us who knocked him down?

:26:40. > :26:47.First, attempts to steal people 's bank cards and pin numbers while

:26:47. > :26:50.they're using cash machines have actually tripled over the last year.

:26:50. > :26:56.DCI Dave Carter from the Dedicated Cheques & Plastic Crime Unit is

:26:56. > :27:02.here. How many of these incidents are happening at the moment? It has

:27:02. > :27:11.gone up from about 2500 in the first few months of last year to about

:27:11. > :27:16.7500 in the first few months of this year. That is a massive increase.

:27:16. > :27:19.The traditional methods to attach a device to the card slot, which can

:27:19. > :27:24.easily capture the number of hundreds of cards. They will then

:27:24. > :27:30.attempt to fix a camera to the top of device. We have put a camera in

:27:30. > :27:35.here for the studio. It would see the user tapping in details on here.

:27:35. > :27:39.Very similar to what you have here. Then the criminals have hold of your

:27:39. > :27:45.card number, they can match it from the PIN number, and have your two

:27:45. > :27:50.valuable commodities. What about shoulder surfing? That is going back

:27:50. > :27:54.to basics, back to comment distraction tactics. What they will

:27:55. > :27:59.do is, while you are attempting to get your cash out, they will watch

:27:59. > :28:02.you put your PIN number in from the side, they will use a piece of paper

:28:02. > :28:06.or something to distract you, while they have got your PIN number, they

:28:06. > :28:12.will try and snatch your card out of the slot and then they are away.

:28:12. > :28:17.Talk through what we are seeing here. You can see the chap 's

:28:17. > :28:21.standing behind him. He is looking to see what his PIN number is, he

:28:21. > :28:26.has got it now, he has moved in and before you know it, you snatched the

:28:26. > :28:30.card from the start. Again, there is somebody there, piece of paper which

:28:30. > :28:37.they are using to distract the person. And again they have got it

:28:37. > :28:47.away. You are going to show us how easy that is. Imagine this was a

:28:47. > :28:51.

:28:51. > :28:54.real ATM. I would come up, but by weigh something in your face... Like

:28:54. > :28:59.a map, asking Ford directions. As soon as it has done that, I have the

:28:59. > :29:03.card, before you know it I have done. If you take the card, they

:29:04. > :29:08.often leave the cash. So I would be think nothing is wrong because I am

:29:08. > :29:14.so distracted, take my cash, but it is the card that is missing and they

:29:14. > :29:19.have got the PIN number. Although you may have taken your �50 out,

:29:19. > :29:27.they will be round at another machine taking out 500. How can I

:29:27. > :29:32.keep myself safe? Cover your PIN number at a machine. Whatever you

:29:32. > :29:36.have to hand. That will protect you from people looking from behind and

:29:36. > :29:41.from camera devices. Also, stand a bit closer. Lock of you with your

:29:41. > :29:46.body. Then the criminals will not be able to get your PIN number and you

:29:46. > :29:51.will be fine. If I do think someone is looking and paying too much

:29:51. > :29:55.attention, cancel the transaction and move on? If you have gone too

:29:55. > :30:05.far, state very focused on what you are doing. Secure your card, your

:30:05. > :30:10.

:30:10. > :30:14.A year after his death, the friends and family of Ernie Maloney are

:30:14. > :30:20.still appealing for help to try to find the person responsible.

:30:20. > :30:24.As a young man, Ernie Maloney from south London operated searchlights

:30:24. > :30:32.over the capital cheering the Second World War. He was still going strong

:30:32. > :30:38.at 93. He was destined to be getting a telegram from the Queen. I so no

:30:38. > :30:42.reason why he should have made that -- should not have made it. If it

:30:42. > :30:47.was not for him, we would not enjoy the freedoms we have. He worked for

:30:47. > :30:51.the gas board. He had lived alone for more than 20 years, and even

:30:51. > :30:57.though he was in his 90s, he was very independent, and walked

:30:57. > :31:05.everywhere. He never had a bus pass. He never applied for one, we never

:31:05. > :31:13.found one. He did not even have a doctor. He looked after himself, he

:31:13. > :31:18.did not need anybody. He was quite independent. February last year, he

:31:18. > :31:24.set off on the one mile journey from his house in Southwark to the bank

:31:24. > :31:31.to collect his pension. He made this journey regularly, despite his age.

:31:31. > :31:37.Delivery driver Andrew Chez witnessed what happened next.

:31:37. > :31:43.down towards Denmark Hill, I saw him attempting to cross the road, a

:31:43. > :31:47.quarter of a way into the road, a dark hatchback came around the

:31:47. > :31:54.corner at 30 or 40 miles an hour. A head-on impact, straight up into the

:31:54. > :32:00.windscreen, into the air, a somersault onto the ground. But the

:32:00. > :32:05.car did not stop. He had been the victim of a hit-and-run. He had been

:32:05. > :32:11.left severely injured, lying in the middle-of-the-road. For somebody to

:32:11. > :32:16.do that and not stop, you are a coward, basically. He was rushed to

:32:16. > :32:25.Kings College Hospital in a critical condition with serious head

:32:25. > :32:31.injuries, a broken leg and internal injuries. I saw him and it was very

:32:31. > :32:36.upsetting. They explained what happened, that he had been knocked

:32:36. > :32:42.over by the car, and the car drove off and left him there, and it was

:32:42. > :32:46.really sad. It was really upsetting. We were talking to him

:32:46. > :32:50.all the time, my daughter was playing these it to him, we could

:32:50. > :32:57.see a flicker in the eyes. He knew there was somebody there, but we

:32:57. > :33:07.could not get anything out of him. was speaking to him. He opened his

:33:07. > :33:08.

:33:08. > :33:12.eyes, and that is when I started to cry. Despite the best efforts of the

:33:12. > :33:20.medical team, he never regained consciousness, and two weeks later,

:33:20. > :33:25.he died. The police launched an investigation into his death, and

:33:25. > :33:31.they found that this CCTV camera had captured every car that passed the

:33:31. > :33:38.scene of the accident that day. calculating what cars have gone

:33:38. > :33:44.through, we see the witness vehicle has come through, no vehicles going

:33:44. > :33:51.the other way before that, the first vehicle you see must be the suspect

:33:51. > :33:57.vehicle. Although the CCTV is very poor quality, police say this is car

:33:57. > :34:01.that hit him. They believe it is a dark coloured hatchback. It is a

:34:01. > :34:07.difficult secret for somebody to keep. Early died, they would have

:34:07. > :34:10.been aware of that fact, they might have come back a few days later, and

:34:10. > :34:16.undoubtedly they would have told somebody. I want that person to tell

:34:16. > :34:24.the police what they know. He had five sisters, one of them died just

:34:24. > :34:33.shortly after my uncle did. They want to know why this person did not

:34:34. > :34:39.stop. And why drive off when you do something like that? Now, they are

:34:39. > :34:48.asking, have they found anybody yet, has anybody come forward? Of

:34:48. > :34:54.course, the answer is always know. It has devastated us. It really has.

:34:54. > :35:02.We solved 98, 90 9% of our road traffic deaths, and this one is on

:35:02. > :35:08.solved. But this one pains me that a man of his age, 93, can be run over

:35:08. > :35:13.and left in the gutter of a road and a person can drive off without any

:35:13. > :35:19.care or consideration to a fellow human being, it is beyond me. A

:35:19. > :35:26.93-year-old man does not deserve to die that way.

:35:26. > :35:33.This is a terribly sad story. I am joined by Mick Woollard. You are

:35:33. > :35:38.desperate to track the person down. Let's go over the facts again.

:35:38. > :35:47.was Grove Lane, Campbell well, the 15th of February last year, at

:35:47. > :35:51.9:10am, it was a bright, sunny day. We saw the CCTV footage, the car

:35:51. > :35:56.look like a light blue colour, you think it is a dark coloured

:35:56. > :36:01.hatchback? Yes, we got that from a witness testimony. It was a sunny

:36:01. > :36:08.day, you are getting the reflection on the CCTV. You are convinced it is

:36:08. > :36:13.a hatchback's yes. After it hit him, what would the damage have been to

:36:13. > :36:18.the car? Damage to the front, onto the bonnet, and maybe the

:36:18. > :36:21.windscreen. You are appealing to people who might have seen a car

:36:21. > :36:27.with damage at that time to come forward. You are desperate to close

:36:27. > :36:32.this. Yes, most of these cases are solved, but this one remains on our

:36:32. > :36:39.books. I am pleading to somebody who knows what happened, or has seen the

:36:39. > :36:44.damage, or for the driver. To do the right thing. Yes, it will be better

:36:44. > :36:47.for him in the longer run. Everybody who has seen that film will be

:36:47. > :36:52.affected by this. Please do get in touch.

:36:52. > :36:58.Time for some more crocs. They thought they had got away with it,

:36:58. > :37:02.but we have got them on camera. We are insured and in Birmingham,

:37:02. > :37:07.April this year, in a shop, but these men have got no intention of

:37:07. > :37:12.buying anything. One of them heads for the counter, he looks at the

:37:12. > :37:16.sweets, but that is not what he is after. He lunges for the throat of

:37:16. > :37:22.the shop assistant and rips off her gold necklace. A woman is shoved out

:37:22. > :37:27.of the way by the second thief. They make a run for it. They attack a

:37:27. > :37:31.member of the shopkeeper's family, punching him in the face. They have

:37:31. > :37:39.got away with a necklace worth �500. They need to be caught. Do you know

:37:39. > :37:44.them? It is rush-hour in West London. This

:37:44. > :37:49.woman is doing the school run. Look closely, she is just carrying a

:37:49. > :37:54.purse and a red school satchel. But by the time she gets off the bus,

:37:54. > :38:00.she has got her hands full. She seems to have acquired a bulky case.

:38:00. > :38:05.The suitcase and its contents were worth �360. Get in touch if you know

:38:05. > :38:11.this thief. A private driveway in

:38:11. > :38:15.Wolverhampton. It is lunchtime, and there is nobody at home. But these

:38:15. > :38:20.guys are not here for a social visit. They are casing the joint and

:38:20. > :38:25.looking for a way in. They settle on the side door, and one of them goes

:38:25. > :38:30.to work, trying to force it open. That they are not having much luck.

:38:30. > :38:37.It is not as easy as they hoped, but they have got another plan. Smash

:38:37. > :38:43.the window instead. The first two guys quickly climb through and into

:38:43. > :38:52.the house. But the last one is having a bit of a problem getting

:38:52. > :38:58.in. Books, careful! I think it is best you wait outside. They emerge

:38:58. > :39:08.soon with a heavy safe. They have hit the jackpot. It contains about

:39:08. > :39:08.

:39:09. > :39:13.�50,000 worth of jewellery. Do you know them? Give us a call.

:39:13. > :39:23.They will have done their backs in. Time for them to hand themselves in,

:39:23. > :39:23.

:39:23. > :39:33.you know what to do. You can call, text or e-mail. Do not forget, you

:39:33. > :39:35.

:39:35. > :39:38.can also call Crimestoppers You are going to fancy yourself in

:39:38. > :39:44.one of these, a top of the range police car with the latest kit and

:39:44. > :39:52.gadgets. We will find out all about them. Tell us about how this car

:39:52. > :39:55.came about. The Association of Chief Police Officers challenged vehicle

:39:55. > :40:00.manufacturers in October to develop a car for the future, a mobile

:40:00. > :40:07.office with lots of technology. looks like an ordinary police car,

:40:07. > :40:15.but tell us about it. It has got six cameras, one here, and some in the

:40:15. > :40:20.rear. Not an ordinary boot of a car. It is full of stuff you would not

:40:20. > :40:25.ordinarily find. The brains of the car is here, with the camera

:40:25. > :40:31.equipment. This has automatic number plate recognition, and facial

:40:31. > :40:39.recognition. Let's head back to the kit and find out a bit more about

:40:39. > :40:44.the facial recognition. Glenn is our soundman, he will get involved. We

:40:44. > :40:52.have already taken his photo, tell us how it works. We took his photo

:40:52. > :40:55.using a smart phone, we transmitted that to a server, and that has gone

:40:55. > :40:58.on to the car, so if he was being arrested, if he was not being

:40:58. > :41:05.truthful who he was, his name would pop up and the officer would know

:41:05. > :41:11.his identity. What other kit have we got? A mobile phone device like

:41:12. > :41:16.this, a laptop that docks into the dash, so an officer can take this

:41:16. > :41:22.out, type up the crime report, which is already on the laptop, and

:41:22. > :41:28.transmit live all of their data to the police station, to save time and

:41:28. > :41:33.efficiency. And this black box?If you have got a driveaway situation

:41:33. > :41:38.at a petrol station, the officer needs to recover the CCTV, using the

:41:38. > :41:42.ports, he can collect the information, download it into the

:41:42. > :41:47.car and transmit it again anywhere that the police want the information

:41:47. > :41:50.to go to. You have been working closely with the police, so all

:41:50. > :41:54.sorts of gadgets that will make the officer 's' life easier and more

:41:54. > :42:00.efficient. I am sure you are impressed!

:42:00. > :42:03.Lots of calls coming in, we have had a possible name for the man wanted

:42:03. > :42:09.in connection with sexual assaults in Canning Town. The police say they

:42:09. > :42:16.need to catch him urgently. Keep the calls coming in. The lines are open

:42:16. > :42:20.all day. Plus a possible name about the CCTV with a man smashed across

:42:20. > :42:25.the head with a bottle. Where are you tomorrow?

:42:25. > :42:29.We are back in London, we are going to be on the Trail of a thief who

:42:29. > :42:34.made off with a unique piece of boxing history. And we will be in

:42:34. > :42:39.the sky above, with the airborne police unit. Join us for that

:42:39. > :42:45.tomorrow, they will be looking down on us on the streets of London.

:42:45. > :42:53.I wish I had a chance to fly with them! Remember, the CCTV clips are
