Google has apologized for a shocking image that turned up on its first week of showing Street View maps of Windsor, Ont.
A team was in the southwestern Ontario city last summer to snap photos of every address for Google's Street View map.
But a quick scan past a strip club on Wyandotte Street showed a bloody scene where a murder had taken place hours earlier.
An employee of the company that owns Leopard's was appalled to hear the image was online.
After being informed of the image, Google removed it. A black square shows where the picture of the bar's parking lot used to be.
Google said it sometimes captures sensitive images, but apologizes if it caused any distress.
