Billboard Top 10… most wanted?
Police in Alabama, USA have started using digital billboards as 21st Century Wanted posters:
Between ads for hamburgers and liposuction, the giant digital billboards flashed an image of Oscar Finch’s face taken by a surveillance camera. The young man wasn’t selling anything. He was running from police.
Finch, a suspect in a bank robbery, was in custody just a day later, and police say his swift capture is an example of how the eye-catching electronic signs can be used as a 21st century version of the Wild West wanted poster.
