CLIFTON, New Jersey (CNN) -- A quick-thinking 15-year-old boy used his Sprint cell phone camera to take pictures of a man who allegedly tried to lure him into his car, leading to the man's arrest, police said.

The boy, who escaped from his alleged captor after a struggle, gave pictures of the man and his car license plate to police in Clifton after the incident Tuesday. Armed with that evidence, police arrested William MacDonald, 59, of Passaic, on Wednesday.

Det. Capt. Robert Rowan of the Clifton Police Department said as the boy was walking home Tuesday evening, MacDonald approached him in a white car and asked him to get in. The boy refused, Rowan said.

1. With the proliferation of cell phones...

Amongst the young, and the fact that the ones with the cams are so NOW, I would have to say that being a sexual predator just became even less of a good social move. Boy, are the sales of them gonna skyrocket!

I expect to see this on Stile Project within the hour. ;-)
