This is just one of thousands of stories about @Flock_Safety helping locate missing persons.

Flock LPR cameras were instrumental in the safe recovery of a missing woman with dementia in Aurora, CO. Upon receiving the missing person report, the Real-Time Information Center utilized an LPR alert to pinpoint her vehicle's location, allowing officers to quickly reach her. This real-time vehicle intelligence enabled a rapid response, successfully reuniting the woman with her family and highlighting the vital role of LPR technology in emergency situations.

After Olympia dismantled its @Flock_Safety camera network, a shooting suspect tied to an Olympia incident was tracked and arrested only because @RichlandWA and neighboring agencies kept theirs. Olympia detectives had to rely on other cities’ cameras to protect Olympia residents. @cityofolympia newstalk870.am/ixp/133/p/floc…

So proud to see @Flock_Safety technology being used to help get suspects of violent crimes off the streets before they can potentially hurt others. 🙏

The City of Olympia, Washington chose to end their partnership with Flock last year. Over the weekend, Flock cameras in nearby Richland were instrumental in finding a suspect in a shooting in Olympia. Olympia is safer today because of Flock.

A suspect is now in custody after a rapid, multi-state investigation into the deaths of three women in rural Utah. Here's how the case unfolded: 📍 Wednesday afternoon: Two women were found dead near a trailhead and a third victim was discovered dead at her residence in Rural Utah. 📍 Building the timeline: Investigators believe the suspect killed the elderly woman first, took her vehicle to the trailhead, and fled the scene in one of the hikers' cars 📍 Trying to find the suspect: Law enforcement uses Flock License Plate Reader technology to track the stolen vehicle across New Mexico, Arizona, and into Colorado 📍 Thursday: Miller is located, the vehicle is found abandoned, and he is arrested without incident — less than 24 hours after the investigation started 📍 Now: Miller is held in Colorado on weapons charges, awaiting extradition to Utah where he is expected to face murder charges @Flock_Safety License Plate Reader technology helped investigators follow the trail across state lines and close in on the right vehicle at the right time.

Can’t wait to listen in!

Tomorrow on Cheeky Pint: @glangley from @Flock_Safety joins to talk about their license plate readers, autonomous drones, and how tech is changing the offense/defense balance of crime.

Great outcome for an amazing customer. Using tech to quickly & accurately apprehend a suspect delivers justice & prevents further harm. Simple as that.

In Casa Grande, AZ, Flock technology quickly identified the suspect's Dodge Caravan. This crucial vehicle information was disseminated to surrounding law enforcement, leading to the apprehension of the driver by the @GilaRiverPolice. Learn the full story: bit.ly/4aOcjsN

Chief Nishant Joshi said it best: “Technology doesn't replace humans… but anytime we can use technology to make ourselves much more efficient and effective, we're moving in the right direction.” In California, Flock cameras helped CHP identify a vehicle in a hit-and-run investigation and helped Alameda officers arrest a stolen vehicle suspect with a firearm and fake federal IDs. The cameras capture plates, not people—so agencies can solve more cases while respecting community privacy.

After a woman was carjacked at gunpoint in Schnitzelburg by two suspects, Flock LPR cameras assisted the @LMPD in recovering her stolen vehicle quickly. Officers located the car just 90 minutes after the incident. In a separate case, Flock LPR alerts identified a stolen Honda Accord downtown, providing critical vehicle leads that, alongside aerial support, helped officers locate the suspect. Real-time intelligence is helping officers act fast and close cases even faster. Learn more about Flock: sbrew.link/2bPPgJo4

The most dangerous scenarios are the ones with the least information. Flock DFR gave the Hawthorne Police Department critical awareness during an encounter with an armed suspect, helping officers locate and apprehend the suspect before the situation escalated. Early visibility meant safer decisions for officers and the community. See how Flock DFR helps reduce uncertainty in high-risk calls.
