Ryan Hill is stoked to be in San Diego! He’s coming to the area from Sacramento. So, he only had to shuffle his area codes around a little bit, trading the 916 for the 619.
SAN DIEGO — On State Route 94 East near the Home Avenue exit is where San Diego Police arrested a suspect - Rene Lujan - for allegedly not one but two kidnapping attempt s in the Mission Valley mall this week.
According to Ashley Nicholes, the San Diego Police Department's Strategic Communications Manager, the ALPRs capture an image at a point in time so that investigators can pull that footage and examine it when looking for a suspect. Since late last December, Nicholes told ABC 10News the Smart Streetlights have helped bring 81 suspects into custody, recover more than $1.137 million in stolen property and recover five guns.
But the technology doesn’t come without some criticism. As ABC 10News previously reported, some groups, like Trust SD Coalition, have raised concerns about oversight regarding the tech.
