Is that the law?

And yet our local Police station is clearly visible on Google Earth!

I'm surprised the police aren't pursuing the criminal damage issue, as they now have evidence.

Don't be surprised. I once photographed some youths causing damage and as I was taking the photos one of them noticed me and called out to his mate. The ring leader then just looked straight at me as I took a perfectly clear photo of him. When questioned by the police has apparently said "That's not me" claimed to have been somewhere else at the time. They (the police) accepted what he said and took no action. Waste of time IMO
