Fingerprints found at the scene of a burglary prove to be the missing piece of evidence detectives need to convict a man responsible for the murder of the flat's owner. After the man is found beaten to death in his own property, police use footprints found around his body to identify one assailant before putting together their case against his violent accomplice, whom they suspect of the killing. \n\nAlso today, a pair of crooks who burgled an old man's home and went on a spending spree with his card are caught on CCTV.
