Canadian police recently arrested four people from the notorious Torch Gang, including a father and son, after 130 ATMs in Ontario and Quebec were burned with a blowtorch in a backpack and more than C$1 million in cash was stolen. Despite the suspects wearing balaclavas and gloves, the information provided by the police in the video was sufficient for the men to be identified and arrested.
Is social media the way forward to combat ATM criminals? With more than 60,000 viewings this video seems to have been essential for police.
