A SOCIAL media app helped nab a recalcitrant smoker on the Metro this morning.

The man was seen smoking in a Metro Line 9 subway car heading towards southwestern Songjiang District around 10:30am, police said. He refused to extinguish the cigarette in spite of complaints from other passengers, before one of them took his picture and reported the case to Shanghai Metro police via WeChat, a social networking service.

Metro police confirmed around 1:30pm that they found the smoker and the case was under investigation.
