Mug Shot

While investigating a car theft in London, England, police found the thief’s fingerprints in the car. That was useful, but perhaps not as much as another clue: a camera that was left in the car was still there, and the car’s owner had the film developed. “I was looking through the pictures when suddenly I saw my car and some bloke in it with a screwdriver in his hand,” victim Matthew Holden said. “When I showed the police they recognized him straight away.” Bobbies arrested Lee Hosken for the theft. “We are very grateful to this man for making his own arrest so easy,” a police spokesman said. (Reuters) ...Hosken allegedly told the judge he was “badly framed”.
