North Shore Police Credit Flock Cameras With Helping Find Child In Stolen Car
As cities and towns hotly debate the merits of the ALPR cameras, Lynn police said they were critical in the rapid recovery of a 6-year-old. North Shore Police in Lynn, Massachusetts, have credited Flock cameras for helping find a child in a stolen car. The technology helped find the child, who was in the car when it was stolen, and was tracked down in Everett within 39 minutes. This comes amid debate across the state about discontinuing the use of the Flock automated license plate reader camera system and similar ALPR camera and data storage systems due to concerns of abuse and the creation of a "surveillance state". The potential abuse of Flock ALPR data has been a topic of controversy across the country, with some residents expressing concerns about how federal agencies could obtain that information and use it for immigration enforcement. The incident highlights the importance of modern investigative technology and cooperation from various agencies.
