Cash-in-transit crime has been dramatically cut by 77 per cent in three months, in a joint police and security industry initiative in Manchester.
Operation Hawk-Eye, launched in September 2002, gathers evidence using surveillance vehicles equipped with CCTV to cover the routes and destinations of CIT vehicles, helping to deter criminals from committing cash-in-transit crime.

During the first three months of the initiative, there was a 77 per cent reduction in cash-in-transit attacks compared to the same period in the previous year. Greater Manchester Police's assistant chief constable, Alan Green, said Operation Hawk-Eye, backed by the GMP and BSIA, had proved to be a resounding success.
