This happened in the town centre in broad daylight in a little market town where we might have a little reputation for whinging but not terrorism. I have always supported the police and their actions on this forum and elsewhere but i can't help think there was a complete over reaction on the part of the police here and it is not something i like to see our officers doing. End result of this is they scared the hell out of a bunch of kids that are no trouble and have come across as anything positive.

the officer could end up in trouble for that and in any case it doesn't do what they think there are various bits of software and or equipment that can easily retrieve all the information from even a factory reset phone or camera
so he failed in his understanding of the law and in getting rid of the evidence
