Los Angeles police and movie industry officials unveiled new surveillance cameras in downtown Los Angeles aimed at stemming the city’s thriving bootleg DVD business.

The Motion Picture Assn. of America donated $186,000 for the 10 pole-mounted cameras, which will monitor movie piracy activity in the Fashion District. The cameras are similar to those installed around Hollywood Boulevard and MacArthur Park.
