Facial recognition tech picks a suspect out of a crowd of 50,000 in China

Police in southeast China have reportedly arrested a fugitive spotted in a crowd of 50,000 people attending a pop concert thanks to some eerily accurate facial recognition technology. According to local reports, the man was arrested while attending a show by Hong Kong singer Jacky Cheung in the Nanchang, Jiangxi province. The man's full name hasn't been released but he is described in reports by his family name, Ao. "Ao was suspected to be involved in an economic crime and was listed on a national online system," police officer Li Jin is quoted as saying. "He was very shocked and had a blank face when we caught him." Ao had reportedly thought that he was safe to attend the crowded event because he considered that there was minimal chance that he would be identified in such a large group of people.
