The Norwich authorities are now looking for a man accused of brutal assault over a homeless person discovered through the online video sharing service YouTube. It seems like the video was recorded in November and then published on YouTube, attracting a lot of viewers and comments. The attacker assaults the man and aims an impressive series of punches and kicks into his face as Evening News 24 reported. According to the same publication, the 30-second attack was recorded by someone sitting in a car outside the KFC in Norwich's Prince of Wales Road.

"Now that this has been bought to our attention police officers will make further enquiries. We would urge anyone who witnesses this type of behavior to contact the police. The filming of this type of incident is irresponsible and we would hope any witnesses to such crimes would report them as soon as possible," the police authorities sustained today according to the Evening News 24.

As you surely know, this is not the first time when YouTube is involved in the police investigations started after numerous clips were published on Google's video product. In the past, another policeman posted a surveillance clip on YouTube to require users' help and identify the suspect. Although it seems like YouTube is sustained by a huge and impressive community, more and more Internet companies are planning to create new and powerful similar services able to challenge Google's YouTube. NBC and Microsoft are now planning to release one of the most powerful online video sharing services especially meant to challenge YouTube but it seems like a group of prayers are also aiming to promote GodTube, a new service trying to lure Christians to their page.
