Chinese police have arrested a man using facial recognition, after high-tech cameras identified an alleged criminal among fans at a 60,000-strong pop concert. The suspect, known only by his surname Ao, had been in attendance at a concert by Hong Kong singer Jacky Cheung, in Nanchang, Jiangxi province, southwest China, last week.

Video footage shows the moment the shocked suspect is arrested by several police officers, and he can be heard saying: 'My friends and I bought the concert ticket and I went with my wife.
