Law enforcement in Florida is increasingly relying on surveillance cameras to combat and investigate crime. In West Miami, police are investigating a series of thefts by 'porch pirates' after surveillance footage of the culprits was captured. Meanwhile, a construction company in Florida reported the ironic theft of a $355 security camera, which was installed to monitor their property. The camera recorded a clear image of the thief, which could aid in his capture. Lancashire Police is also encouraging the public to register their home security cameras, which can provide crucial evidence for crime investigations. In Miami-Dade, the Chicago-based company RedSpeed is expected to collect about $10 million per year from school-zone cameras. The company ran radio ads on ActualidadRadio thanking Commissioner Arod, the sponsor of the camera legislation, which used a Georgia contract to bypass local bidding. Additionally, Miami Shores police are using surveillance footage to seek public assistance in identifying a suspect who attempted to break into two homes.
