Street View pulls Canadian murder scene Google has pulled images of an Ontario murder scene from Street View, the Windsor Star reports. At around 2am on 21 July, 2009, 24-year-old Nicholas Ingram was stabbed to death in the parking lot of the Leopard's Lounge and Broil strip club at 1190 Wyandotte St. W, Windsor. Later that day, the Steet View vehicle passed by and …

Like google news and their search engine, the street view cars are driven by computer generated algorithms.
Obviously their AI is limited, and they might have lost that variable regarding the murder scene.
Either that or they accidently put a book scanning/OCR algorithm into that street view car, and it thought the murder scene was just part of the plot.
Most Yanks who know about Ford's line of V8s have never heard of the 302C, just the 302W ... In the interests of any hot-rodder who might be reading this, the 302C heads are an interesting alternative to increase compression on most of Ford's W/C/M line of engines. Just pay close attention to valve/piston clearance ...
I had a set of Aussie Cleveland heads on my 351ci (5.7l) '70 Mercury Cougar for a while. Then I got busted for running racing fuel on the street & put the stock 4V heads back on it so I could go back to pump gas (petrol). Until they dropped the octane levels of "street" fuel to the point where the motor would ping (detonate) under any normal acceleration. Today it's back on racing fuel, and is only driven at the track. Usually ;-)
On topic: The fuel injection is computer controlled ... and it'd make a good get-away car ;-)
I live in Windsor. I don't get it. The killing happened. The investigation happened. Why having imagery surrounding the investigation is "tasteless" or even "distressing", I don't know. If I were related to the victim, I wouldn't be using Street View to check out the strip club where it happened. Otherwise, who is this footage bothering?
I'd be more disturbed by the fact that when Google imaged our city we were embroiled in a historically unprecedented THREE MONTHS. No garbage pick-up, no maintenance of public parks - our city which does a lot of tourist traffic - looked like hell. That our city is recorded "permanently" as very unattractive is far more disturbing than that one of our average two murders a year happened moments before Google showed up.
They should be arresting the Google car driver, like they arrest tall of even short photographers over there.
Could be that given the apparent low intellect of your police, they can only identify pedestrian photographers.
The NZ Police have something called common sense, which may have been lost by your lot.
