Residents turn detective to fight crime
from People Fixing the World · host BBC World Service
Neighbours in the US are using cameras that read car number plates to record vehicles driving down their streets.

But critics say the Flock Safety system, run by a private company, is open to abuse and warn of privacy concerns. Is it too risky to encourage residents to do police work, or a realistic response to under-resourced law enforcement?Presenter: Tom Colls Producer: Claire Bates(Photo Credit: BBC)
