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...

@JennyYoung men are by far the most likely to be attacked in the street at night, and having a penis doesn't make me any stronger or tougher than a woman (I'm a gay vegetarian...come on).
And the "colleague" worked as I did; part time on odd days, summer job, rubbish collection. I didn't know him from Adam.
Caution is fine...but assuming every slightly-odd man out at night is a mugger or rapist is going to make our streets an even shitter place to be than they already are. I refer you to my earlier QOTW answer, where I wasn't allowed in a room alone with the Muslim girl because of course, as a man, I'm obviously going to toss my sexuality aside and be utterly unable to resist raping her on the spot.
Maybe he was a just a little drunk (or drugged; "I feel strong" comment), felt friendly, and didn't realise how threatening his actions appeared. Rape or assault are some pretty hefty things to assume someone intends based on "looking creepy".
