A tragic shooting in El Cerrito just days after the city shut down its last license plate reader cameras has reignited debate over public safety tech. A 21-year-old was fatally shot in broad daylight at a busy mall, with dozens of witnesses — and police believe the suspects knew their victim. The getaway car, a Nissan Maxima, was captured on a home security camera, but without Flock’s cameras, investigators say they’re lagging behind. Police Chief Paul Keith calls the cameras vital, while privacy advocates warn of potential misuse and stress the need to balance safety with civil liberties. Authorities are urgently seeking the suspects and the vehicle as the investigation continues.
