LONDON — Police in the UK are deploying a chemical liquid that clings to clothes and skin in order to crack down on moped-riding bandits. <br /> <br />According to SelectaDNA, officers can spray fleeing offenders with a tagging spray, which marks them and their vehicles with an invisible dye. <br /> <br />The spray contains DNA code, with each can bearing a unique chemical signature. <br /> <br />The odorless liquid can only be seen under UV light. It cannot be scrubbed off, and can remain on a person's clothes and skin for months. <br /> <br />The spray not only helps identify suspects, but also serves to effectively link them to their specific crime. <br /> <br />According to the Pontefract and Castleford Express, one 18-year-old has already been charged and sentenced with the help of the tagging spray. At least two other teens have been arrested for moped-related crimes.
