Frontline Fightback is a brand-new series looking at how the very latest technology, combined with some clever police work, is helping in the battle against the crimes that blight our communities.

Burglary, car thefts, drug dealing, anti-social behaviour, knife crime, muggings – these are the crimes that affect us all.  This thought-provoking series features harrowing accounts from the victims of crimes like these and shows how crime-fighting technology – from satellite tracking devices to weapon-detecting scanners to smart home security systems – is increasingly being used in the fightback against those responsible.  As technology continues to change and develop in all sorts of exciting ways, life looks like it’s getting more difficult for criminals.
