A&E’s “The First 48 Presents Critical Minutes” returns this Thursday with another dose of real-life crime-solving. In “Caught on Camera, Part 3,” the focus is on the crucial role of surveillance footage in cracking cases. Two investigations take center stage, demonstrating how video evidence can be the key to identifying perpetrators and bringing justice.
In Tulsa, Oklahoma, detectives investigate the shooting death of a man found on the road. Surveillance footage from nearby businesses becomes instrumental in piecing together the events leading up to the murder and identifying a suspect. Meanwhile, in Atlanta, Georgia, the hunt is on for the killer of a father gunned down in a parking lot. In this instance, detectives turn to the public, releasing surveillance images and hoping for that critical tip that can break the case open.
Hosted by veteran detectives from “The First 48,” “Critical Minutes” provides expert commentary, explaining the importance of those crucial early moments in an investigation. Tune in to A&E on Thursday, May 29 at 8:00 PM ET for a look at these gripping real-life investigations.
