CCTV pictures showed a 24-year-old man terrorising a pub holding a chainsaw after he was thrown out of the establishment for flouting the smoking ban. Dean Dinnen had been ejected from the bar in Hull shortly beforehand. He returned with the petrol-powered tool which he started up in front of the horrified customers. Punters managed to restrain him before armed police arrived to arrest him. Dinnen has since been jailed for three years.

A “pack of lies”: that is how a judge described in court a man’s made-up story about a mugging that was proved wrong by CCTV cameras. Teesside man Alex Jones was helping his wife, who was a cash collector, but lost a bag of money. He used the robbery ruse to hide this error, but CCTV checks on the scene of the ‘crime’ showed no robbery, and Jones was later arrested for perverting the course of justice.
A CCTV security tap was stolen during a run of robberies committed on businesses over the past month. Cash and the tap were taken from a takeaway restaurant as similar premises were targeted in the Midlands. Police believe the series of attacks could be the work of one man, and have released an E-fit image of the suspected offender. Two hairdressers were among the other businesses which have been hit. In all the cases cash was stolen.
Detectives are urging people who recognise a pair of men on CCTV images of a store attack to identify them. Both of the men are white and in their early 20s. The first may be easier to identify as he wore a checked trapper hat. Lothian and Borders Police appealed for information about the Edinburgh assault, saying: “The CCTV images show both men within the Scotmid store, and we are appealing to anyone who recognises them to come forward.”
A homeless man used fancy dress to commit a series of armed raids. Robber Martin Reilly admitted raiding bookmakers up and down the UK using unusual dress, including an Elvis Presley outfit. Reilly, who has been remanded in custody, admitted 15 of the 20 charges but denied the raids in Kettering on June 13, Bedford on June 17 and an attempted robbery in Eastbourne on July 17 last year. 
CCTV images caught a gang of three thieves breaking into a bar. The trio who raided the Hampshire premises during the early morning are all described as white and in their early 20s. They were seen by surveillance cameras climbing over a low wall to the building where two of them helped the third shimmy up a wall and into a window. Inside they caused £500 of damage when they ripped the safe out of an office. 
CCTV images have been released of a man police want to trace after an attempted robbery at a turf accountants. The Cardiff premises were invaded by a man armed with a small kitchen knife who threatened staff. He dmanded cash but the plucky worker at William Hill refused to hand anything over and escaped. The suspect then left the premises empty-handed. Police are appealing for anyone with information to get in touch.
CCTV footage has been recovered showing a man who has stolen jewellery worth almost half-a-million pounds. He placed all the items stolen from a Glasgow auction house in a black holdall. Those involved in the investigation say officers have been checking CCTV as well as making extensive inquiries to trace those responsible for the theft. Detectives have appealed for anyone who saw the thief or anything suspicious in the area between 6.55am and 7.20am on Tuesday to contact them.
An improved CCTV system has been installed to help fight festive crime thanks to a partnership with the police. Personnel from the CCTV control room, who monitor the 102 public space cameras across Greater Manchester, now have access to police radios. Details of any incident caught on camera can now be immediately passed on to the nearest available officers, which will result in a much faster response.
