Google's Street View Netherlands caught robber suspects

A 14-year-old boy was robbed by two men of €165 ($230) and his cell phone last September in Groningen, 110 miles northeast of Amsterdam, Netherlands. Recently, while the boy was looking around Google Street View, he surprisingly found himself -- a photo of himself biking that very day that he was robbed. Luckily, the photo also showed the two robbers following him.

After he reported what he saw to the police, authorities asked Google for the original image, with faces unblurred (Google blurs faces for privacy reasons). Google agreed to the request, and when given the photo, a robbery squad detective recognized one of the twins.

Arrests have been made and thanks to Google Street View!
