I've just come across an interesting article on the BBC web site:

School shock at vandal web video
A head teacher has spoken of his shock at seeing a video clip posted on a public website of a laughing pupil hurling a rock at a classroom window.
The shaky 15-second footage shows a clearly identifiable boy grinning as he strides up to throw the missile
What the article doesn't mention is whether this act was caught on CCTV or witnessed by anyone that would have reported the incident? If the answer to these questions is 'no' then surely there is also the positive side to the story: Vandals identified from Youtube video
The school now knows, and can prove, who commited the act as well as identifying two other students that were involved in the incident.
As ever there are two sides to any story - but which one makes a better headline?
