Flock camera in place in Westminster

A new camera system is in place in Westminster, and it has sparked a question from a 101.7/WGOG listener.  Police Chief Patterson says the device that sits high in the W. Windsor Street median in front of the Blue Ridge Bank is a Flock camera.  It has license plate-reading technology and can assist law enforcement in crime investigations and missing person vehicle cases.  Patterson confirms the camera is pointed in a way that can read license plates on vehicles entering the city from the west.
