'Tag' system for police officers

The movements of every Metropolitan (Met) police officer could soon be monitored with a £2.2m tracking system.

The Automated Personal Location System (APLS) would use police radios to pin-point the exact location of officers on duty in London.

The Met said the electronic device would improve safety for officers and enable a quicker and more efficient response to incidents.

The Met said the new system will allow an officer in need of urgent assistance to be located and assisted much more quickly.

Poor Bobbies, every move they make will be tracked.
