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...

Two curious storiesMy friend J was walking home from a night out in Glasgow with us one new year's eve. He was chatting away on the old mobile phone when someone ran across from the other side of the road, grabbed the phone annd scarpered. J was a bit pissed off, obviously but figured that it's just a phone, insurance will pay for a new one etc, so we keep on walking. Next thing we know, the same little fucker comes running back to the group of us, and gives J his phone back, the runs off again... Go figure.
Right down at the other end of the Isles (I wasn't there to witness this one....so technically doesn't count), my friend D was asked by a friendly looking chap what the time was. Not having a watch, he checked his mobile phone, which was promptly snatched by the aforementioned fella. But this guy didn't run off, he just walked away. Normally, D wouldn't confront anyone, but the barefaced cheek of this guy got under his skin, so followed him, demanding his phone back, but the thief wouldn't oblige. So D ripped this guy's backpack right off his back and runs for it.
There wasn't anything of value particularly in the bag, just a folder with some drawings in and a few stinky grots - seeme like the assailant was a student too, and an art one at that....
