10:14am Wednesday 3rd October 2012 in News
POLICE are set to spend more than £54,000 on a network of cameras aimed at catching travelling criminals.
A mobile Automatic Number Plate Recognition (ANPR) unit – used to track vehicles which have been used for crime – has led to North Yorkshire Police making 21 arrests and seizing 155 vehicles between April and June this year.
The force has now asked for an extra £54,300 from the police authority to buy 10 more moveable cameras.
