Today on Crimewatch Roadshow. Love on line. The romance scams that

:00:11.:00:21.
:00:21.:00:37.

hello and welcome to Crimewatch Roadshow. We are live and it is our

:00:37.:00:42.

last day on air, so we are pulling out all the stops to to get as many

:00:42.:00:47.

criminals behind bars as we can. Here is here is what is on the

:00:47.:00:51.

programme today. Searching for a soulmate. How online romance scams

:00:51.:00:56.

are leaving people with more than broken hearts.

:00:56.:01:03.

Help us catch the knife wielding thugs that robbed two shop workers.

:01:03.:01:07.

And one too many. We go out on the road with West Mercia Motorway

:01:07.:01:12.

Police on their summer drink-drive campaign.

:01:12.:01:16.

Our Roadshow team are at the end of their marathon thrip round the

:01:16.:01:21.

country and are still in West Mercia. Are are are you today Sian?

:01:21.:01:25.

Morning, I am at West Mercia force HQ, and we are feeling sad here,

:01:25.:01:29.

because it is our last day on the road, but it is not over yet,

:01:29.:01:33.

because today, we are focussing on drink-driving, and I am going to be

:01:33.:01:36.

trying on these beer goggles to see the effect that drinking alcohol has

:01:36.:01:41.

on the sense, plus we will see a high tech car that stops you from

:01:41.:01:46.

drink-driving. Sounds good. First, internet dating.

:01:46.:01:51.

It is estimated that round half of single people in the UK have been on

:01:51.:01:54.

line looking for love. With one in five starting a new relationship

:01:54.:01:58.

that way. But for an increasing number of people, finding love on

:01:58.:02:03.

line comes at a very high price. We have disguised the identity of this

:02:03.:02:13.
:02:13.:02:13.

man to protect his privacy. Finding love is never easy.

:02:13.:02:18.

52-year-old Dan was keen to meet the woman of his dreams.

:02:18.:02:23.

I consider myself to be a quiet person, keep myself to myself, I

:02:23.:02:27.

haven't got a lot of confidence in talking to people. Like millions of

:02:27.:02:31.

others he turned to the internet for help and registered with several

:02:31.:02:35.

online dating agencies. I ended up talking to this lady from another

:02:35.:02:40.

country. For the West Mercia Economic Crime

:02:40.:02:46.

Unit, this story is a familiar one. The romance scam or dating scam as

:02:46.:02:50.

it is also known, has probably been going for about five years or so.

:02:50.:02:56.

One of the first things to look out for is the masking to move away from

:02:56.:03:03.

the date dating site. Dan's Russian girlfriend did just that, suggesting

:03:03.:03:06.

they email each other direct after just two weeks. She wanted to know

:03:07.:03:11.

about me, what I did and the rest of it, that I talked about her and I

:03:11.:03:16.

asked her question, she said I really want to come to England. She

:03:16.:03:21.

kept going "I love you, I want to spend the rest of my life with you."

:03:21.:03:25.

It sounded genuine. She sent me photographs of her and she was a

:03:25.:03:29.

very attractive lady, I thought I have pulled a good one here.

:03:29.:03:34.

Of course, the photographs Dan was sent were probably of a completely

:03:34.:03:40.

innocent woman who has no idea her images are being used.

:03:40.:03:44.

The photographs they use are usually photographs that have been stolen

:03:44.:03:48.

from other websites. They are probably from glamour site, they are

:03:48.:03:51.

models. -- sites.

:03:51.:03:54.

After a month of daily correspondence, the new couple

:03:54.:04:00.

decided to meet. With Christmas fast approaching, it

:04:00.:04:03.

seemed an ideal time to get together.

:04:03.:04:08.

But her trip to the UK wouldn't come cheap, and it was Dan who would have

:04:08.:04:15.

to foot the bill. �600. She said I will sort the documents

:04:15.:04:21.

out and the rest. I said "All right." She told me how much it was

:04:21.:04:26.

going to cost. She said "Are you prepared to contribute towards it?

:04:26.:04:31.

Buy me the air tick? " I said all right and that was it. So eager for

:04:31.:04:36.

love Dan didn't hesitate to pay the bill. �600 for plane tickets.

:04:37.:04:40.

is when it starts and by that time, you know, the stridge thinks they

:04:40.:04:47.

are in a relationship, and you know, all commonsense sort of seems to go

:04:47.:04:52.

out of the window. All systems go, Dan prepared to meet his true love.

:04:52.:04:57.

But then an email arrived from her, saying she had been arrested at the

:04:57.:05:01.

airport for having tablets in her bag. She needed �6,000 before the

:05:01.:05:10.

police would release her. Gl "I'm in prison, it is bad. ." You

:05:10.:05:14.

believe them. You start living on dreams. Made Christmas an

:05:14.:05:18.

anticlimax. After the disappointment of

:05:18.:05:22.

Christmas there was better news. Dan's on online girlfriend decided

:05:22.:05:27.

to sell her flat. She should be able to return Dan's hard-earned cash,

:05:27.:05:33.

and also more importantly, they could be together.

:05:33.:05:38.

But then, another hitch. Sorry I have to tell you I can't

:05:38.:05:41.

withdraw the money because I haven't paid the taxes on it, which worked

:05:41.:05:47.

out at �2300. Something like that. I should have workeren up and smelled

:05:47.:05:51.

the coffee then. Doe -- woken up. But the requests

:05:51.:06:00.

for cash kept coming. I need money for traveller's cheques. It is going

:06:00.:06:05.

to cost for a visa, medical fee, I can't wait to be with you, it will

:06:05.:06:10.

be worth it my love. Dan had now invested quite a considerable amount

:06:10.:06:16.

of money in this relationship, and only had 300 emails to show for it.

:06:16.:06:20.

The next message would leave him reeling. She got a passport, the

:06:20.:06:26.

visas, the ticket, she was in town and she said she had plenty of time

:06:26.:06:30.

to spend. I am going to the museum. She went to the museum, she said she

:06:30.:06:35.

knocked a vase over, and this vase was going to cost �2,000. Then, the

:06:35.:06:40.

penny did drop. It is easy for people to sort of

:06:40.:06:45.

say, "Silly, they deserve what they get, the rest of it." I don't follow

:06:45.:06:49.

that. These people are professional, they are part of organised crime

:06:49.:06:54.

groups, and they are very good at what they do. Extremely good.

:06:54.:06:58.

the one that went to the bank. I am the person that did the

:06:58.:07:02.

transactions, so I only have myself to blame. It was my money, my

:07:02.:07:12.
:07:12.:07:13.

mistake. It cost me about �16,000. And Robin Longmore is we me now. Dan

:07:13.:07:17.

certainly isn't alone in being conned, is he? No, he is not sadly.

:07:17.:07:21.

There are many people out there who get caught in this time type of

:07:21.:07:25.

scam. It is frightening. Because what type of money are we talking

:07:25.:07:29.

about? We are talking serious money. It is difficult to put a figure on

:07:29.:07:34.

it because few people come forward to report these matters through the

:07:34.:07:39.

embarrassment of being caught. have got some statistic, between

:07:39.:07:43.

August and January Action Fraud say victims were conned out of �5

:07:43.:07:47.

million. That seems extraordinary to me. What do you make of it? .

:07:47.:07:51.

not surprised. I think that is probably a Conservative figure. It

:07:51.:07:56.

could be more than that. We don't get a lot of reports, its is through

:07:56.:07:59.

intelligence-led police, we identify these victims of these type of

:07:59.:08:04.

crime. Who are the victims here in who gets caught out by scams?

:08:04.:08:08.

the victims tend to be from the age range of about 35 up to about 80

:08:08.:08:12.

years of age. It is not just males or female, it is a mixture of both.

:08:12.:08:18.

We tend to find the men get scammed by purported beauties from Russia,

:08:18.:08:24.

and these are carried out by males usually, out in Russia or eastern

:08:24.:08:29.

European countries. But the ladies tend to get scammed by people from

:08:29.:08:32.

West Africa, predominantly Nigeria or Ghana. Very often the pictures

:08:32.:08:36.

they are looking at will be of white British male, or American army

:08:37.:08:41.

soldier, something of that nature. So your advice to people using them?

:08:41.:08:46.

Follow your head not your heart. Always make inquiries as best you

:08:46.:08:52.

can, ask them to go on line, and on Skype or something of that nature

:08:52.:08:57.

and wear a yellow hat or hold a banana or something of that nature

:08:57.:09:02.

so you know who you are talking to. Let us hope people are listening to

:09:02.:09:07.

that advice. Now, it is CCTV time, we will press

:09:07.:09:10.

play and if you recognise anyone we will need you to pause for thought

:09:10.:09:18.

and give us a call. March this year in Telford. This man

:09:18.:09:22.

wearing a big scarf covering his face has come into a petrol station

:09:22.:09:27.

shop. He makes his way over to the till. He has got a knife. And tells

:09:27.:09:31.

the shop assistant he wants cash. But he is told he can't open the

:09:31.:09:37.

till unless he buys something. So, the helpful thief passes him a

:09:37.:09:42.

packet of chewing gum. With the till finally open he helps himself to

:09:42.:09:47.

�200 and legs it. If you know anything about this incident, please

:09:47.:09:57.
:09:57.:09:58.

call us. These guys are here for shopping but

:09:58.:10:03.

this supermarket isn't going to get any money off them. They trail down

:10:03.:10:09.

the aisle, one after the other. One of them helps himself to some fruit.

:10:09.:10:13.

Another steals a bottle of alcohol. But when a member of staff comes

:10:13.:10:19.

over, they make a sharp exit. They are back the next month, and

:10:19.:10:22.

this time they steal some more booze.

:10:22.:10:26.

And they are at it again a few weeks later. They take a bottle of pop,

:10:26.:10:33.

and some meat. Planning a dinner party lads? Two of

:10:33.:10:38.

them make yet another visit in March. One of them selects some

:10:38.:10:42.

beer. The other takes a couple of bottles of wine.

:10:42.:10:46.

They are followed out of the shop by a member of staff. Over the four

:10:47.:10:51.

month period they take �900 worth of stuff.

:10:51.:11:00.

Do you know any of these men? London. April this year.

:11:00.:11:05.

An up market shop in Piccadilly. These guys head for the coats. Not

:11:05.:11:11.

to buy, but to help themselves. One of them opens the bag ready. But

:11:11.:11:14.

they are disturbed. Once the coast is clear, they get

:11:14.:11:19.

straight back to business. This time, they get the coats, worth

:11:19.:11:24.

a total of �1200, in the bag. Then, they leave the shop

:11:24.:11:28.

separately. Come on, don't let them get away

:11:28.:11:34.

with it. You know what to do. If you recognise anyone there make

:11:34.:11:41.

sure you pick up the phone. You can call us. Remember Calls are free

:11:41.:11:44.

from most landlines. Some networks and mobile operators will charge for

:11:44.:11:49.

these calls. Text us.

:11:49.:11:52.

That space is important, if you don't put it in your message won't

:11:52.:11:58.

get through. Texts will be charged at standard message rate. You can

:11:58.:12:04.

email us, the address is on the screen.

:12:04.:12:09.

Next, how one laid night shift as at a convenience store turned into a

:12:09.:12:14.

nightmare. We were doing our normal tidying up.

:12:14.:12:18.

Suddenly this man was in front of me. Open the till. Give me the

:12:18.:12:24.

money. He wants the money and he has a knife. I couldn't believe what

:12:24.:12:34.
:12:34.:12:35.

just happened. In Shrewsbury in February of this

:12:35.:12:40.

year, Christine Collins was at work in her local shop. She has worked at

:12:40.:12:44.

the shop for over seven years, and lives in the local area.

:12:44.:12:49.

It is handy for me. Everybody is nice, the customer, the regulars are

:12:49.:12:56.

nice. Get on well with all of them. Sundays are quiet, and we were

:12:56.:13:03.

getting ready to tidy up a bit, because we shut at 9.00 on a Sunday.

:13:03.:13:06.

While Christine was out front her colleague Jo was in the back.

:13:06.:13:11.

Because of her fear of reprisal, we have changed her name, and hidden

:13:11.:13:16.

her identity. Jo was in the stock room getting stuff to put out on the

:13:16.:13:21.

shelves because we weren't busy with customers.

:13:21.:13:27.

But their peaceful Sunday late shift was about to be disturbed.

:13:27.:13:32.

I happened to look up at the cameras which is automatic when you hear the

:13:32.:13:37.

door go. That is when I saw somebody come in, all hooded up. Give me the

:13:37.:13:43.

money, give me the money now. Suddenly this man was in front of

:13:43.:13:48.

me. Get it open, now. Come on. Hurry up. I could hardly see his face, he

:13:48.:13:53.

said "Give me the money." He got hold of me, he had a knife. He

:13:53.:13:56.

leaned over straight away and grabbed hold of Chris, that is when

:13:56.:14:02.

I shot out into the shop. I had no plan at all. My main concern all the

:14:02.:14:12.
:14:12.:14:13.

time was Chris. I was shaking, I could not open my till. His next

:14:13.:14:17.

move was to get behind the counter to get his hands on the cash.

:14:17.:14:23.

backed into the corner and wanted to stay well away from him. He'd used

:14:23.:14:30.

his blade to prise open the till to help himself to the day's takings.

:14:30.:14:37.

He got the money, and I press the panic alarm. I could not believe

:14:37.:14:45.

what had happened. Chris was very shook up. She was very frightened.

:14:45.:14:50.

The minute he left, she collapsed on the floor. She put her arms around

:14:50.:15:00.
:15:00.:15:04.

me and help me. The panic, the pain, it hurts so much. Can I have an

:15:05.:15:14.
:15:15.:15:22.

still struggling to come to terms with this vicious attack. I could

:15:22.:15:32.
:15:32.:15:34.

still be serving him. I cannot place him, there are two eyes, a nose, and

:15:34.:15:37.

he could still be coming in the shop, and I could still be serving

:15:37.:15:45.

him. I am not the same. I do not feel the same any more. But it is my

:15:45.:15:50.

job. I have been there a long time, and I like it. I cannot let somebody

:15:50.:16:00.
:16:00.:16:06.

Take us through a description of this man. We are looking for a white

:16:06.:16:13.

male in his late teens, early 20s, five foot ten to five foot 11, he

:16:13.:16:23.

has a pale, peachy complexion, with a pointed nose. What was he

:16:23.:16:28.

wearing? A great or green hooded top, underneath which another white

:16:28.:16:36.

hooded top. The top is pulled tightly around his face, you can see

:16:36.:16:40.

parts of his facial features. He is wearing black Adidas tracksuit

:16:40.:16:45.

bottoms, which have three White stripes three quarters down the leg.

:16:45.:16:52.

You think he left on a bike? Yes, on a skinny type dog mountain bike,

:16:52.:16:56.

with straight handlebars, we believe it went towards Coniston Road

:16:56.:17:01.

injuries brief. What about the nice? This is similar to the one

:17:01.:17:08.

that was used. A three inch blade, the handle was not seen, because it

:17:08.:17:15.

was tucked away. As it is the last show in the

:17:15.:17:19.

series, let's have a look back at some of the faces that need that

:17:19.:17:24.

final push to help police track them down or stop starting with this guy,

:17:24.:17:31.

he may now be calling himself by another name, as he uses aliases,

:17:31.:17:35.

including Anthony Stevenson Wilson and Lee Anthony Wilson. He was

:17:35.:17:40.

handed a sentence in 2004 for a series of robberies. He was released

:17:41.:17:45.

early on licence but is now wanted back in jail. He is known to have

:17:45.:17:50.

links to Manchester and Spain. This man is next, 23-year-old Mohammed

:17:50.:17:55.

Islam, he is wanted by officers in Hampshire with sexual assaults's

:17:55.:18:00.

with connection with sexual assaults on women in the area. He speaks with

:18:00.:18:07.

a Bangladeshi accent, and he carries a backpack. Police in Northern

:18:07.:18:14.

Ireland need your help to find this lady, she may now be using a number

:18:14.:18:18.

of different names, including Doctor Jules Watson, Julia Macaw, Celia

:18:18.:18:24.

McGoogan or just Celia Holmes. She has been missing since 2010, when

:18:24.:18:28.

she was charged with defrauding a man out of �18,000 by pretending to

:18:28.:18:34.

be an American millionaire. She failed to appear in court. She is

:18:34.:18:38.

known to have connections across Ireland and in Bedford. Finally,

:18:38.:18:42.

Charles Dhillon has served seven years for raping a woman at

:18:42.:18:45.

gunpoint, he is now on the sex offenders register, but he has

:18:45.:18:49.

failed to notify police of his current whereabouts. Officers think

:18:49.:18:55.

he is a threat to the public, 5'5" tall and believed to be in the

:18:55.:19:05.

London area, possibly pilfered. Pick up the phone. The context us. You

:19:05.:19:14.

can also e-mail us. Can you help us find a light

:19:14.:19:17.

fingered jewellery thief and his shopping companion, caught

:19:17.:19:23.

red-handed on CCTV? These two men saunter into a

:19:23.:19:27.

jewellery shop in the middle of Shrewsbury Town at around 1130 on

:19:27.:19:33.

the 29th of March. Then, they home in on one particular display

:19:33.:19:36.

cabinet. They asked the assistant to show them a pair of cheap pal

:19:36.:19:42.

earrings. Whilst one man holds her attention, the other reaches over

:19:42.:19:48.

her fate and steals a platinum and diamond ring worth �25,000. Then,

:19:48.:19:54.

they stop to pay for the earrings before strolling out of the store.

:19:54.:20:04.

Unbelievable. Tell me about the ring. It is quite distinctive, it

:20:04.:20:11.

has got a large central time and, -- a large central diamond, the size of

:20:11.:20:19.

a 5p. There are diamonds around the shoulders, and a platinum ring.

:20:19.:20:23.

was an audacious theft, what did you know about the man? He is about five

:20:23.:20:29.

foot ten, stocky, short, dark hair that was not styled, he was wearing

:20:29.:20:36.

blue jeans and had a puffer jacket on. Wasn't he looking through a wad

:20:36.:20:41.

of money? Yes, he had a lot of money with him, to show he could pay for

:20:41.:20:46.

something, tried not to be suspicious. The other man was more

:20:46.:20:51.

distinctive, an Asian male again, five foot eight, medium build, he

:20:51.:20:55.

had styled black hair and a distinctive style beard that

:20:55.:21:05.
:21:05.:21:07.

followed his jawline. Still to come, over the limit, we

:21:07.:21:10.

are on duty with the motorway police, cracking down on drink

:21:10.:21:16.

drivers. It is Friday, so Jackie is back with

:21:16.:21:22.

some more results. You may remember last year we appealed for

:21:22.:21:25.

information about some burglaries at some of market apartments in

:21:25.:21:29.

Battersea. We had tens of thousands of pounds worth of jewellery

:21:30.:21:35.

stolen. We showed some really clear CCTV pictures and reconstructed what

:21:35.:21:42.

happened. February last year, and Sandra

:21:42.:21:46.

Burrows went to work as usual. It'll be chino that two burglars were

:21:46.:21:51.

about to steal her life's possessions. They were seen

:21:51.:21:54.

approaching her upmarket block of apartments. One pressed the buzzers,

:21:54.:21:58.

the other made sure he was not leaving any fingerprints. They were

:21:58.:22:06.

smartly dressed to fit in, so nobody would ask questions, they would put

:22:06.:22:12.

a lot of thought into it, and they were well organised. They made their

:22:12.:22:15.

way up to the flat on the sixth floor and forced their way in.

:22:15.:22:20.

Stealing more than �11,000 worth of treasured possessions and heirlooms.

:22:20.:22:30.
:22:30.:22:31.

Ransacking every room. Very angry with them, that they think they can

:22:31.:22:35.

take these things and claim on their insurance and it will be fine, but

:22:35.:22:40.

the loss of the sentimental items, they are not replaceable.

:22:40.:22:45.

burglars wanted more. They moved next door, where they stole over

:22:45.:22:50.

�2000 worth of possessions. To add insult to injury, they also took the

:22:50.:22:57.

owner's car, caught on CCTV driving out of the underground car park.

:22:57.:23:00.

They go down the left, into the garage, see the anti-space, and it

:23:00.:23:08.

was like, the final hit. But Sandra decided to fight back. She printed

:23:08.:23:12.

off leaflets with photos of the burglars for her neighbours, and as

:23:12.:23:18.

a result, she found out the thieves had struck again. CCTV showed the

:23:18.:23:21.

burglars approaching nearby apartments and a game in the garage

:23:21.:23:28.

area. This time, they escaped with �150,000 worth of jewellery. But we

:23:28.:23:36.

were about to end their spree. It is such a horrible crime. How

:23:36.:23:40.

were the offenders identified? had loads of calls from our viewers,

:23:40.:23:44.

and one of them recognised both men, which led to the arrest of a couple

:23:44.:23:54.
:23:54.:23:58.

of Essex lads. Larry Alan Cooley and Adam Jury. The names were given, and

:23:58.:24:03.

they -- and one of them was in prison at the time. Yes, for an

:24:03.:24:09.

unrelated events -- offence, and he saw himself on the television in his

:24:09.:24:14.

cell, and he was seriously spooked. Once the police had his name, they

:24:14.:24:20.

went to see him, and they tracked down Adam Jury, who was working as a

:24:20.:24:26.

plumber. A successful prosecution's they both pleaded guilty, Larry Alan

:24:26.:24:32.

Cooley sentenced to 18 months, Adam Jury to two years. There were a lot

:24:32.:24:37.

of sentimental items stolen, were any of them recovered? Sadly, no.

:24:37.:24:43.

Sandra Burrows is the heroine of this case, she put a lot of personal

:24:43.:24:50.

effort into catching these guys. Actually, she was delighted with the

:24:50.:24:54.

results. If we had not gone to Crimewatch

:24:54.:24:56.

Roadshow, they would not have caught them, because the police have no

:24:56.:25:01.

other leads, other than these fantastic pictures that we had on

:25:01.:25:07.

CCTV. Having said that on TV, we could get a result. I was happy they

:25:07.:25:12.

caught up with them, because the biggest thing was knowing that they

:25:12.:25:16.

were still out there and they were going to do this to other people. I

:25:16.:25:19.

was happy they caught them as a result of the show.

:25:19.:25:24.

A small amount of closure for the brave victim. You are going to be

:25:24.:25:29.

back later to give us some results for the whole series. Let's go to

:25:29.:25:35.

shone. Drink-driving, we all know it is

:25:35.:25:39.

wrong, yet every year, hundreds are killed on the road by drivers

:25:39.:25:44.

flouting the law. We went out with police officers in forcing a

:25:44.:25:53.

nationwide summer campaign to crack down on drink drivers.

:25:53.:25:57.

The central motorway police group looks after more than 400 miles of

:25:57.:26:03.

one of the busiest road networks in Britain. We have just passed to

:26:03.:26:07.

emergency vehicles, and... , solid looks like we might be the first

:26:07.:26:14.

officers on the scene. Today, as well as patrolling the motorway,

:26:14.:26:18.

these policemen are on the lookout for drivers who have been drinking.

:26:18.:26:21.

They have just been alerted to a road traffic accident on the M6 toll

:26:21.:26:27.

road outside Birmingham. The vehicle has left the carriageway, the

:26:27.:26:30.

paramedics are working with the patient, so the priority is the

:26:30.:26:36.

patient. Once we get the go-ahead, we can breathalyse the driver to

:26:36.:26:42.

make sure there is no drink or drugs involved. I am just going to do a

:26:42.:26:46.

breathalyser. Have you had this before? You can hold the machine,

:26:46.:26:54.

blow as hard as you can. Keep going. Brilliant, thank you. That is all

:26:54.:27:03.

done. It is a zero, you have passed. I will pass you on to an officer.

:27:03.:27:07.

Both the driver and passenger escaped serious injury. But drivers

:27:07.:27:11.

who do have alcohol in their system are up to six times more likely to

:27:11.:27:16.

die in a crash. It is a miracle no one was killed by this drunk driver

:27:16.:27:23.

will stop in July of last year, he drove his lorry ten miles up the M6

:27:23.:27:29.

with his lights off, going the wrong way. He was jailed for eight months

:27:29.:27:34.

and is qualified from driving for three years after proving to be more

:27:34.:27:39.

than twice over the legal limit. Back on the road, the summer

:27:39.:27:42.

drink-driving campaign has already stopped thousands of drivers. These

:27:42.:27:49.

were all under the limit. But a van has caught the officers' attention.

:27:49.:27:53.

We have spotted a van travelling at speed, we will speak to the driver,

:27:53.:28:03.
:28:03.:28:04.

see if they have had a drink. A big, deep breath in, give it some money.

:28:04.:28:12.

You have failed the roadside breath test. You are under arrest. Having

:28:12.:28:16.

failed a breathalyser, this driver will now be taken to the police

:28:16.:28:21.

station, where he will be tested again, more accurately. If he fails

:28:21.:28:26.

there, he is in real trouble. Drink-driving is a very serious

:28:26.:28:31.

offence, the consequences, especially for him, will be very

:28:31.:28:37.

serious, he needs his fun for his job, it is his livelihood. If he

:28:37.:28:43.

fails at the station, he will lose everything. Anyone caught driving

:28:43.:28:50.

over the limit faces up to six months in prison and a �5,000 fine.

:28:50.:28:52.

But the consequences of drink-driving can be far worse than

:28:52.:29:01.

that. Kelly was beautiful. Not only was

:29:01.:29:04.

she very pretty, she was also very beautiful inside. She was happy,

:29:04.:29:12.

smiley, had a good sense of humour, the perfect daughter. She was my

:29:12.:29:18.

baby. Kelly was a 20-year-old out in a car

:29:18.:29:20.

with her friend, who had been drinking.

:29:20.:29:28.

When the car crashed, the driver survived. But Kelly did not.

:29:28.:29:37.

When the police knocked at the door, you just, you just know. There is

:29:37.:29:41.

bad news, two police officers stood there. They start saying Kelly's

:29:41.:29:51.

been involved in an accident. into that room... I still see

:29:51.:29:59.

Kelly's face. Sheer terror. On her feature, her beautiful eyes

:29:59.:30:09.
:30:09.:30:14.

Back in the police station, the driver arrested for failing his

:30:14.:30:20.

roadside breath test is about to face his moment of truth.

:30:20.:30:26.

Deep breath. Keep going, keep going, keep going. Keep going.

:30:26.:30:32.

That's it. This is the calibrated breath test procedure we conduct at

:30:32.:30:37.

the station. It is more accurate than the roadside which gives you an

:30:37.:30:41.

initial reading, really, however, this is the most accurate you can

:30:41.:30:51.

get, so, yeah, see what happens with this. The legal limit is 35ml of

:30:51.:30:56.

alcohol for every 100ml of breath. This driver has come in at 27. He

:30:56.:31:04.

has passed but it is a closical. is very scary. Driving is my job, I

:31:04.:31:08.

am a carpenter by trade. It is an eye-opener for me. I will be more

:31:08.:31:11.

careful. I don't want to go through this again. I certainly don't. I

:31:11.:31:16.

want to keep my license, I want to have a clean license. Simple as

:31:16.:31:20.

that. The driver is released without charge.

:31:20.:31:25.

The officers are back out on patrol. As a traffic officer, we are looking

:31:25.:31:28.

for drink-drivers so it is not like, you know, we only do it when the

:31:29.:31:32.

campaign is on. We are constantly looking for anyone that is

:31:32.:31:42.
:31:42.:31:42.

drink-driving. The very sad consequences of

:31:42.:31:49.

drink-drive, and I am joined by PC Dal Nijjar. Dal, you have brought

:31:49.:31:53.

beer goggles, what are these for? That is right. This is a beer

:31:53.:31:57.

goggle, it is an educational thing we use, for members of the public,

:31:57.:32:00.

to experience what it is like to be a drink-driver, if they have had a

:32:01.:32:05.

drink and get into a car and start driving. It is very powerful. Which

:32:05.:32:11.

is what we want. It gets the message home and people appreciate the

:32:11.:32:15.

consequences of drink-driving if they ever did. Let us try it and see

:32:15.:32:19.

what it is like putting them on. I am going o to go on to this white

:32:19.:32:24.

line and follow it. So get on the line, what exactly do I need to do?

:32:24.:32:28.

Just, basically walk in a straight line, toe to toe. If you start

:32:28.:32:38.

walking in a straight line. It feels very strange. I feel disorientated,

:32:38.:32:44.

and quite woozey, I don't know how I am doing here, any clues? Am I on

:32:44.:32:48.

this line, it feels like I am. Unfortunately you are nowhere near

:32:48.:32:52.

the line, you are not walking in a straight line. I am right off the

:32:52.:32:57.

line. That is right.Fascinating to see, I thought I was walk on the

:32:57.:33:02.

line. My sense of direction and gravity has gone all the police,

:33:02.:33:06.

people still get into a car when they have had a drink. Too much to

:33:06.:33:10.

drink. That is right. We have small percentage of people that still want

:33:10.:33:14.

to get in a car and drive. They will think they are OK. They are only

:33:14.:33:18.

going am to B and unfortunately we see the other side when we go to the

:33:18.:33:23.

accident, where it could be serious. You do. -- A to B. Thank you for

:33:23.:33:26.

bringing these along. Back to you, Rav.

:33:26.:33:31.

Now, last week, we made an appeal on behalf of the Met police about a

:33:31.:33:35.

series of sex attacks in East London. They urgently need to catch

:33:35.:33:38.

this man. They believe he has been sexually assaulting women in the

:33:38.:33:41.

Canning Town area, usually as they are letling themselves into their

:33:41.:33:44.

properties late at night. -- letting. Now detectives believe he

:33:44.:33:50.

struck again. This is the sixth attack and it happened on Wednesday

:33:50.:33:54.

June 19th. A week after the previous attack. The Met have released CCTV

:33:54.:33:57.

footage of what happened before the assault. The victim, here onnen

:33:57.:34:02.

right, who had been visiting a friend in Cundy Road is seen loading

:34:02.:34:07.

her ka with luggage before heading home. The suspect walks past and has

:34:07.:34:10.

obviously noticed her. He is seen lurking round before he walks in

:34:10.:34:15.

front testify car. And there we get a better look at him. Just minutes

:34:15.:34:18.

after that CCTV footage was filmed, the victim was about to buzz herself

:34:18.:34:23.

back into the build, when the man sexually assaulted her, he needs to

:34:23.:34:27.

be stopped and if you know anything please ring the number on your

:34:27.:34:31.

screen now. Now, focus your attention, it is

:34:31.:34:35.

time to look at a few more Crookes caught on CCTV.

:34:35.:34:40.

-- Crookes. The bookies in Epsom March this

:34:40.:34:44.

year, these two men are in a hurry, the jackpot they want is behind the

:34:44.:34:49.

till. They start threatening the terrified staff. Forcing them to get

:34:49.:34:53.

on the floor. One of the men heads to the cash room and fills his

:34:53.:34:56.

plastic bag with money. As the other one keeps watch.

:34:56.:35:00.

Then they carry out a thorough search of the tills.

:35:00.:35:05.

All together, they steal over �3,000, before making their escape.

:35:05.:35:09.

The whole raid takes less than 90 seconds.

:35:09.:35:19.

They might have their faces covered, but do you know them? Surrey now and

:35:19.:35:23.

it is long past closing time at this restaurant in Richmond. Look at this

:35:23.:35:28.

man raiding the till. He helps himself to �60. He manages to look

:35:28.:35:34.

straight at the camera, giving us a view of his face. Thanks mate.

:35:34.:35:39.

Police say he also went on to steal three bottles of champagne worth

:35:39.:35:47.

�200. If you know this champagne Charlie, get in touch.

:35:47.:35:51.

These men are hanging round the gaming machines at a bingo hall in

:35:51.:35:54.

Norwich. But they are not gambling, they are looking like they are

:35:54.:35:58.

casing the joint. According to police, they are

:35:58.:36:01.

putting stickers on some of the machines.

:36:01.:36:05.

Then, three different men arrive in the early hours, police think they

:36:05.:36:10.

are all working as a team. They are trying really hard to keep out of

:36:10.:36:12.

sight, but nothing gets past the cameras.

:36:12.:36:17.

Here they are, using crowbars to get the money out of the machines.

:36:17.:36:24.

On to the change machine next. In total, get away with �4,500 and

:36:25.:36:27.

cause nearly �50,000 worth of damage.

:36:28.:36:34.

They have got some nerve, they even take a break before leaving. Police

:36:34.:36:38.

are keen to speak to the two men who were seen at the beginning as well

:36:38.:36:43.

as the three who broke in. Look at the faces, do you know them? If you

:36:43.:36:49.

can help give us a call. Or send us a text.

:36:49.:36:56.

Or you can email us instead. Remember, if you want to stay

:36:56.:37:01.

anonymous you can call Crimestoppers.

:37:01.:37:07.

Sian? We have seen mobile breathalysers in action but you can

:37:07.:37:12.

get them fitted into cars like these. Wayne Walton is with me to

:37:12.:37:16.

tell me about it. We are going to try this straight away so I can use

:37:16.:37:22.

it. I have to try and start this car which I am do doing, nothing is

:37:22.:37:28.

happening because we have to do the breath test You are not allowed to

:37:28.:37:31.

start it until you give a clear breath sample. Hopefully, that will

:37:31.:37:38.

work. OK, it is saying it is analysing, who uses this kit?

:37:38.:37:42.

national coach companies will use it this haulage companies will use it.

:37:42.:37:46.

To ensure they have sober drivers in their vehicles. It is being used at

:37:46.:37:52.

the moment, where did the idea come from? Originally it came across from

:37:52.:37:56.

America, it was used wildly on the Continent as well these days and we

:37:56.:38:01.

are playing catch up. It is a sophisticated piece of kit. Tell us

:38:01.:38:06.

more about it? OK, so it won't allow do you start the engine, you can get

:38:06.:38:14.

a reporting system on the back of it, that will show... Pass there.

:38:14.:38:18.

And do a report for big businesses that want to see people are using

:38:18.:38:22.

the vehicle properly. Right. I have put some mouth wash

:38:22.:38:26.

into my mouth now, because that is going to simulate as though I have

:38:26.:38:30.

got alcohol on my breath. We will give that test a quick go to see

:38:30.:38:39.

whether it shows that is a fail. Thank you.

:38:39.:38:48.

Blow for a longer period of time. So sophisticated kit this, because if

:38:48.:38:52.

you don't do it right it comes up straight away and tells you, I will

:38:53.:38:56.

show there is a fail on that. And then there is no way that this car

:38:57.:39:02.

will be going anywhere. It will not start. Thank you for taking us

:39:02.:39:06.

through that, fascinating stuff. Rav, back to you. As it is our last

:39:06.:39:12.

show Jacqui is back to tell us how we have been doing. It has been

:39:12.:39:16.

busy? Yes, we have had loads of calls. All the information has been

:39:16.:39:22.

handed over to police, arrests are being made, Protestant's being

:39:22.:39:26.

recovered and strong new lines of inquiry have been taken on so it is

:39:26.:39:32.

fantastic as ever. Ewe have had good feedback on the advice we are giving

:39:32.:39:37.

out It ask heartening to know how they have embracing the tips we have

:39:37.:39:41.

been give, con people who have been pretending to be bank employees and

:39:41.:39:49.

conning people into giving out PIN number, even Dyson repair men,

:39:49.:39:52.

distraction burglaries involving people purporting to be gas people,

:39:52.:39:56.

all those sorts of things are easy to stick in your mind and prevent

:39:56.:39:59.

crime for the future. For me prevention is better than cure, so

:39:59.:40:03.

if we can stop a crime happening that is a massive plus for everyone

:40:03.:40:07.

concerned is. Great to be back and nice to be working with you one more

:40:07.:40:11.

time. For now, let us go back to Sian.

:40:11.:40:15.

We have had a brilliant time with our four weeks on the road, we have

:40:15.:40:21.

been through nine police force, covered 1200 mile, we featured

:40:21.:40:26.

parrots, horses and dogs, and we have been on land and on the sea.

:40:26.:40:31.

Here are our highlights. Welcome to Crimewatch Roadshow.

:40:31.:40:35.

We are on a mission to tackle the kinds of crime that could happen to

:40:35.:40:39.

any of us. Some suspected criminals are on the

:40:39.:40:45.

loose in the countryside near Preston. Today, it is up to these

:40:45.:40:50.

dogs to apprehend the suspects. We will have a hands on free view of

:40:51.:40:56.

the police car on the future, and Rav, you have gadget envy. The

:40:56.:41:02.

Channel Tunnel is a massive policing challenge, it 140 metres beneath the

:41:02.:41:07.

sea. As you can hear I have feathered friends here in the

:41:07.:41:11.

studio. Take a look at this. No mobile phones in those day, that is

:41:11.:41:16.

how they would be getting all their communications.

:41:16.:41:22.

What do I do? Put your right food on the pad. A lot of information you

:41:22.:41:28.

can get from that. There are three helicopters based here, on call to

:41:28.:41:35.

police London behind me, 24 hours a day.

:41:35.:41:38.

Quick update for you, detectives in North Yorkshire tell us they have

:41:38.:41:43.

arrested one of the wanted faces we showed you earlier in the week.

:41:43.:41:47.

officers are joining forces to tackle every aspect of road crime.

:41:47.:41:51.

Imagine if it was your pet that was stolen. Dognapping in particular is

:41:51.:41:56.

on the rise. I am with the longest serving police

:41:56.:42:01.

horse here. Sian, I hear you have been up to no good in Northampton?

:42:01.:42:06.

am being checked into custody. Jacqui, welcome back. Yes, they have

:42:06.:42:12.

found a clip. Six faces for you, they are wanted for serious crimes

:42:12.:42:17.

throughout the UK. I still have that suit. I have that uniform somewhere.

:42:17.:42:23.

Thank you for watching. Take care. And what a month we have had. A huge

:42:24.:42:28.

thank you to police forces for hosting us and to all of you for

:42:29.:42:33.

letting us tell your story, we hope we have made a huge difference, from

:42:33.:42:38.

all of us on the Roadshow team, bye. Can't we do it all again? That is

:42:38.:42:41.

everything for this series, our phone lines are open for another

:42:41.:42:47.

week, so there is still time to help if you can. We will be on the

:42:47.:42:50.

website for another week and we will leave you with one last look at some

:42:50.:42:53.
