My neighbours were recently robbed (in broad daylight), and my HD security cameras have captured footage of the thief entering the property and walking up the side of the neighbours house toward the back door.
The thief is then seen to be coming back along the side of the house and out to the footpath, then straight past my cameras with something being held up under his t-shirt (laptop). Another camera records him opening the gate and entering another premises (where he is believed to be staying) two doors down the street on the other side of my house.
The thief then re-emerges from his property and runs past my place and back into the neighbour's yard, before coming back out of the neighbour's yard for a second time with something else tucked up under his t-shirt.
The offender is known to be either living with, or spending a lot of time with, the registered tenants of the premises he was seen entering after he has stolen my next door neighbour's property.
We KNOW that this guy is responsible for the theft, even though the cameras don't capture him actually ENTERING the house and physically hiding the items under his shirt. We know where he lives. No other person is filmed entering the neighbour's premises between the time when the neighbour leaves, and when the neighbour returns.
My question is.......What can the police reasonably be expected to achieve with regard to calling this person to account for his actions? Is 1080 resolution footage of the suspect sufficient to enable the police to take positive action in relation to this matter or is it just a case of bad luck, and take it up with the insurance company?
