Default Ch4's Benefits Street: Police to Probe Criminal Activity Filmed


Shoplifting kit: As seen on Ch4's Benefits Street

[Police are set to investigate after
Channel 4 screened a documentary
showing members of the public
shoplifting and dealing drugs.
Cops received hundreds of complaints
from viewers angry at apparent criminal
activity that appeared on the show Benefits Street.
The five-part series shows residents
of a tough inner-city area of Birmingham
struggling to cope with cut to their
benefits payments.
During last night’s opening episode
producers filmed two of the participants
buying drugs from a dealer in
James Turner Street in Winson Green.
They also interviewed a man growing
cannabis in his spare bedroom - which was
allegedly later stolen by another star of the show.
In another scene, the convicted thief was filmed
creating a shoplifting kit by lining
a bag with foil to stop alarms going off.]
