It's better to report something like that anonymously from a pay phone and then walk away. A lot of cops will nab you for something if they can, even if you're doing the right thing.
Kind of reminds me of the guy in the US who reported some child porn site to local police, legitimately thinking he was doing the right thing, then later having the cops barge into his place and arrest him on obscenity charges. They took all his computer equipment and made his life hell for a while. Happened maybe 8 or 9 years ago I think, heard about it on one of the wm boards.
