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...

Rat of the WeekMy local newspaper is a great source of misinformation - mixed-up playgroup and Woman's Institute times, surnames spelled incorrectly, photos of local councillors shaking the hands of travel agents, local magistrate court listings, details of pharmacy rotas...
Anyway, one of the things they liked to do each week is run a column called "Rat of the Week" where the most heinous and morally corrupt crimes would feature. This spot was usually reserved for people who conned the electricity money from old ladies and the suchlike, but one week it was different.
"Rat of the Week," it pronounced, "is the person who stole the RSPCA collection box that was chained up outside outside the local shopping centre. If anyone sees anything suspicious such as someone carrying a three foot plastic sheepdog bearing the RSPCA logo then they should contact the police station."

Why, I regularly carry around a three foot plastic sheepdogwho doesn't?
Although I did, harshly, giggle at the fact the had to point out that someone carrying a plastic RSPCA sheepdog may be "suspicious"
*desperately tries to resist making joke about sheepdog with three feet needing RSPCA help*
