"According to EDP24, the business community in a Norfolk town is helping police tackle computer crimes such as child pornography and online fraud.

Detectives from Dereham CID are seeking funds to buy equipment for their burgeoning Hi-tech Crime Unit.

Officers have appealed to local firms to dig deep to help buy the £2000 server needed to cope with the volume of data that they have to sift through.

Without the extra capacity, equipment seized in West Norfolk has to be sent out of the county for analysis when the computer crime unit at the force headquarters at Wymondham is full."
