This seems like something you lot would be good at. I’d like to request some CCTV footage of me (getting punched), but I don’t know who owns lamp post cameras.

It’s this one (yes, the graffiti is very enjoyable):

Close up:

Lamp post identifying number (it just says “4” on it):

Possibly related box:

Map from council that looks like it gives some useful info:

I don’t think it is a council one, as they are marked on the map differently.

Cheers for any help!

of me (getting punched)

is there any reason not to just report the incident to the police and let them work out who the owner of the camera is?

Happy Slappy Inc.

Looks like it is a traffic monitoring camera. Council or Highways England I Would have thought. Sorry to hear you got punched.

I seem to recall reading recently that there had been an attack on someone on a bike or scooter on St Lukes Road so again I would suggest Police. The Council will know who owns the CCTV cameras as I assume they would need Council permission to mount them.

Thanks all.

Have reported it, police aren’t going to talk to me for another couple of weeks, by which time the CCTV might have been wiped (so I’ve read), so I’m just seeing if I can get it myself.

Also I want to see myself being punched.

Indeed! (Cheers)

So sorry to hear this has happened. I used to live just off St Lukes Road and never ever felt as though something like that could happen. WTF is wrong with people these days?

Might be local council highways department- rather than crime prevention cctv, so ask highways dept of the city council also

The council will know whose camera it is if not theirs.

I don’t think it was a local – Totterdown is ace! Idiot driver with road rage against a cyclist 🙄

Is this normal?
You report an assault and get told nobody will deal with the complaint for 2 weeks, that sounds wrong somehow.
