Nothing major worth going to jail for a long time. Hung out with the wrong people at school and saw a lot of theft, damaging of property, graffiti, stealing oil from cars with tubes and things like that.. I was never involved but I witnessed a lot of it. And nah I'd never phone the police on people I knew. Not unless its serious crime anyway.

Yes more than once. I've witnessed an assault, it's very rough in the town centre here on Friday and Saturday nights, it's disgraceful tbh and I've witnessed theft.

Yeah. Petty assault ones mostly, but some robberies too.

Saw someone getting busted for shoplifting at a petrol station. Got a stern talking to from the police and I knew his brother so we laughed about it at school.

My Mum had entered the station when she heard "I see you young man," and feared it was me. I would never do that.

I've also got caught speeding once...but got off with a warning. Does that count?

not an actual crime as it was happening, but I witnessed a guy being taken away in handcuffs by the police before inside a hospital.

I've seen plenty of shop lifting when I worked at a petrol station whilst I was at college.

Also saw a getaway car after an armed robbery in Manchester....

Yes

I was in the co-op and saw a man literally walk in, pick up a pack of beers and walk out again without paying. There was no security alarm when he walked out of the shop and no one else saw it happening. I didn't know what to do, so I just decided to forget it happened and carried on with my shopping.

I didn't want to be known for getting someone arrested in St. Helens I wouldn't live to see the next day.

I was once in a pub and a guy came in taking a shopping list for what people wanted him to steal from the Morrisons over the road. That's not uncommon in pubs in the town centre though.

Well there were the times I was a victim if that counts, and also saw this guy defend himself against a group of guys who were trying to beat him up and I ended up getting my flights back to the UK paid for to testify in court that it was self defense which was a pretty sweet deal for me, meant I got a free weekend at home and justice was served and the guy was found innocent

Yeah someone stole my bike, rode past me and took it into cash converters 5 doors down where I had bought it from 2 weeks before to sell. I walked in and was like erm that's my bike lol.

Crack head jumped on it and rode off though.

Oh and i once saw someone steal a hoagie from Greggs, dare devil.

Yeah I'd let it go if it was just one item they took. They might be desperate.
