Okay, this is why you should probably pick the cell phone with the better camera; you may never know when you’ll be a witness to something substantial – like a bank robbery – and asked to prove your claim. A San Diego man turned crime buster by going mobile, having his trusty camera phone.
The man had decided to be a concerned citizen and take a picture of the license plate of an unusually and illegally parked care with his cell phone camera. (Before you go yelling snitch; perhaps he had his share of parking tickets and decided to share the burden.) Well, the owner of the car apparently was robbing a bank while the car was parked. Just goes to show you how important it is to park legally when robbing a bank.
Police were then called and arrived on scene but after the bank robber had already left. While the F.B.I. and police were investigating this San Diego man was still hanging around and asked an officer if the picture taken by his cell phone may be useful to the investigation. They took the lead and the owner of the illegally parked car was arrested on suspicion of bank robbery.
There is a lesson here. With cameras on phones now being the standard, be careful what you do because there just may be somebody clicking their camera phone on you.
Question of the day: Is this guy a snitch or a ‘concerned’ citizen?
