Police have seized films from an amateur photographer, accusing him of obtaining photographs of possibly sensitive material in Hull city centre.

Photo enthusiast Steve Carroll has lodged an official complaint against Humberside Police after the incident on 1 December.

Carroll said that the officers objected to him photographing 'sensitive buildings', one later adding that people had been anxious about his use of the camera.

Carroll told the officers he was entitled to take pictures in a public place.

'All the shots were of people. I took shots of people crossing the road, the Big Issue seller, two youths drinking from beer cans, people walking in the street and so on,' said Carroll who told us he was making his first attempt at 'street photography'.
