How license plate reader led police to suspected attack on Las Vega Stesla
Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley believes technology will play a key role in the future of law enforcement.
When Las Vegas law enforcement announced they had arrested Tesla attacker suspectSheriff Kevin McMcHill emphasized the importance of the technology used to solve the case. One such technology was the Flock Safety Nicember Plate Reader (LPR) system that McMahill said gave law enforcement the “first clue.”
McMcHill told reporters on March 27 that he began to wonder whether the case would be resolved. However, the sheriff, who wants to run “the country’s most technically advanced police station,” has recognized Flock Safety’s system for the key role they played in the investigation.
Tesla attacker Paul Hion Kim faces a series of charges, including federal crimes.
Police say Kim arrived near the location of the black Hyundai Elantra before walking to the Tesla building. He was allegedly dressed in black and covered his face.

“We are proud partners at the Las Vegas Metro Police Department and have been around for several years,” Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley told Fox Business.
According to Langley, the system that led to Kim’s arrest was deployed about two years ago. The CEO of High Tech said that since the system was deployed, the Las Vegas Metro Police Department (LVMPD) has helped the “successful anxiety every day, every day.”
What makes Flock Safety’s system unique is what Langley calls a “simple English-like search” that helps him track suspects. Once an officer has obtained the license plate, he can enter and set it up in the system so that the nearest officer is notified when the vehicle is in the area again.

“When you give Law enforcement Modern technology, they are very effective at work. But without that technology, they don’t want to be magicians, they need to be effective,” Langley told Fox Business.
Langley believes technology, like McMcHill, plays a key role in the future of law enforcement and combat crime. He predicts that technologies like Flock Safety’s will lead to more objective policing, faster response times and higher clearance rates. This means that criminals are more likely to be accountable.
Flock Safety has a system throughout the United States, each tailored to the specific needs of its community. When a company develops a deployment plan, it does so with an assessment of the crime types and areas most affected by local law enforcement.

Criminal conduct With international gangsters, or the only arsonists who feel forced to attack Tesla, like in this case, we can fit it, given the size of the city and the type of crime they see,” Langley said.
He also told Fox Business that Flock Safety’s “technically, it’s about helping all communities thrive.”
“We are an optimistic group that is about 1,000 people strong. We believe crime is an option. We believe the community can choose to eliminate crime.
