Council Continue Hunting Suspect Who Smashed Their CCTV 10 Years Ago

A man suspected of vandalising a council's CCTV system a decade ago has ironically been captured on camera and circulated as wanted.
Hackney council's coverage of the Shoreditch area suddenly stopped working at 7.00am on July 25, 2006.
Council staff visited the roof of a building in Stanway Street on the Harman Estate, Hoxton and found the transmitter to the cameras damaged.
The damage was caused by a scaffold pole found nearby on the roof.
A video clip taken at the time of the offence was identified by Hackney council staff on a social media website earlier this year and reported to police.
The video clip shows a man with short brown hair hitting the transmitter with a scaffold pole.
He is seen wearing a white T-shirt and blue jeans.
Police are keen to hear from anyone who may recognise this man, or who witnessed the man carrying out the attack.
Anyone with any information is asked to contact police on 020 7275 3449 or via 101 quoting reference number 202265, or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
