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...

We'll be fine, don't worry....A bunch of mates came up to Nottingham (where I'm currently doing my practicals in drinking studies) for my birthday last year.
After much imbibing and good times, we were walking around town as I got into a conversation with a mate of mine about "Shottingham"'s reputation:
Says I:
"...Yeah, Radford and St Ann's are the areas you get shot, but here's pretty safe - "
In a moment of perfect Sod's Law, the second I ended that sentence we turn a corner and encounter one of the stupidest street fights I have ever seen.
Several of Nottingham's finest brawlers, pissshed to the bone, attempting the world's worst excuse for gymnastics on each other.
One guy tried to kick another, and ended up on his arse (Gravity 1, Moron 0).
Another guy attempted something equally as 'athletic' and ended up with his arm at a very peculiar angle and some bone showing to boot.
We decided to watch, whilst in stitches, until we heard police sirens. Then we ran like the wind!
Moral of the story: Drunk people don't feel pain.
Fighting them = bad
and potentially amusing
