Not 100% camera related, but amusing nonetheless. I have no idea how Mr Triggol go to Detective Chief Inspector level.....

Appeal to help solve number plate conundrum (Taunton and Bridgwater)
ADDED: 26/05/2006 10:15
Police in Somerset West are appealing for the publics help to solve a mystery which has seen more than 50 car registration plates go missing from vehicles this year.
Since the start of 2006, cars appear to have been randomly targeted with plates being stolen from both the front and backs of vehicles across the Taunton and Bridgwater area.
Now police want help in a bid to track down who might be responsible or the reasons for the thefts.
There is also a warning for those involved that they are committed a serious offence which could see them given a criminal record.
Somerset West Det Ch Insp Martyn Triggol said: "It is a real mystery to us why these number plates have been taken.
"It would seem that supermarket, college and school car parks have been particularly targeted, but we are unsure what the motive for the thefts might be.
"If it is young people who think it might be a joke to steal the plates, we would remind them that it is a serious offence which could result in a criminal record that might impact on them for the rest of their lives."
In most cases the plates have been unscrewed before being taken, but there appears to be no pattern to thefts.
DCI Triggol added: "We would ask anyone who knows where these plates are or who might be responsible for the thefts to come forward.
"A lot of people have obviously been inconvenienced by these thefts and a significant amount of police resources have gone into investigating them."
People can make their registration plates more secure by using clutch head screws which can be obtained from most car parts stores.
