Anyone with information should call (01482) 578025 or Crimestoppers on 0800 555111.THE latest instalment of the Mail's Caught On Camera initiative includes a robbery in west Hull where a man was forced to hand over his cash cards by a group of five robbers.

During the robbery, which took place on July 1 on Woodcock Street, the group of men cornered the victim in an alleyway in the early hours.

They demanded he hand over the cash in his wallet and a number of cards before using them to take more money from an ATM.

The robbery forms part of the latest instalment of the successful Caught On Camera initiative, which has helped police catch more than 50 criminals.

Caught On Camera is a partnership between Humberside Police and the Mail that aims to help identify people thought to be responsible for crimes such as theft, burglary, robbery and assault, by publishing CCTV images.

The move to restart the scheme, which previously ran for a number of years, reflects a fresh impetus within the force to tackle these offences as well as improvements in the quality of CCTV footage.

Detective Sergeant John Fuller has been leading the campaign but is relinquishing the role after an internal transfer.

He said: "The response of the public over the last year has staggered me at times.

"There is a good group of detectives dedicated to cracking down on the criminals of Hull who show a disregard for the people of the city – initiatives like Caught On Camera show that the general public will not accept crime.

"As we have always said, even with the best will in the world, the officers and staff and Humberside Police cannot be expected to know the identity of every thief, robber and hooligan in the city.

"Caught On Camera has allowed us to clear up many incidents which would not have been able to had it not been for the input of the members of the public.

"By publishing the case files with the Mail we asked for the public to take on some of the responsibility of fighting crime.

"They have shouldered the responsibility and it has been abundantly clear those who have been contacting us feel a firm sense of duty to help us."

It will now be led by Detective Sergeant Nick Ram.

Officers want to appeal not only to people who read the Mail in print, but also the growing number of users of the Mail's website.

Each image published by the Mail in print or online has a corresponding case number.

A hotline has been set up at Humberside Police's headquarters in Priory Road, west Hull, for readers to call.
