VIDEO: Technology played a key role in the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) and the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department’s investigation and arrest of Paul Kim, the man accused of setting fires at a Tesla collision center. Flock Safety is a technology company that collaborates with Las Vegas Metro police. The CEO of Flock Safety told 8 News Now that every car has a fingerprint, and his tech revealed that the camera system creates a search engine for investigators to find cars.
Flock’s search engine helped investigators find Kim’s car — a major clue in the investigation. Clark County Sheriff Kevin McMahill gave credit to Flock while announcing Kim’s arrest. “This case is not solved without the use of technology,” McMahill said. The sheriff said he takes pride in LVMPD’s status as a high-tech police department. They’ve worked with Flock for two years. Flock Safety CEO Garrett Langley said there are now hundreds of cameras deployed in Las Vegas.
