"Every police officer in Coventry is being given a new weapon in the war on crime - a torch.
The ultra-violet torches will help the city's 882 officers identify stolen goods marked with a property-marking liquid.
The liquid, called SmartWater, was launched in October 2004 and has been given to people in Wood End, Henley Green and Manor Farm.
The colourless, odourless liquid is now used in all city schools, at Youth Offending Services premises and at the council's Whitley depot.
Anyone who touches property marked with SmartWater is smeared with an indelible ink only visible under ultra-violet light. Those marked can then be forensically linked to a crime scene."
