I witnessed a crimeFreddy Woo writes, "A group of us once staggered home so insensible with drink that we failed to notice someone being killed and buried in a shallow grave not more than 50 yards away. A crime unsolved to this day."
Have you witnessed a crime and done bugger all about it? Or are you a have-a-go hero?
Whatever. Tell us about it...

Oh, various times...Working in a big brand electrical store (fuck it, it was Currys) we had relatively regular thefts.
The best one was when Dave, the new boy, set up a big ass wide screen telly and DVD player at the front of the store as some kind of promotional tool. They were relatively new and he had hoped to woo punters with the cathode ray tubie goodness.
Half an hour later I walked round, and it was gone. "Dave..." I said "didn't the manager like your display?"
"He loved it," he told me.
"Then where's it gone?"
We watched the action back on the security camera. Some bald bastard walked into the store, picked the telly up, and walked out. He didn't bother to unplug it or anything, he just let the cables snap behind him.
Dave apparently hadn't bothered to set up an alarm, because "who would nick a wide screen telly from the front of a store?"
So not so much witnessed, but we saw the video.
