Additionally, in light of concerns about Flock cameras, the Morrison Police Department has created an online portal to answer questions and address concerns about what the system is used for, with the portal to be updated automatically by Flock. The Morrison Police Department is doing this in attempt to show transparency with the community and the use of their ALPR (Automatic License Plate Reader) cameras. The city has three Flock cameras.

Alexandria Zeggert should be arrested for child endangerment, not just animal cruelty. If that environment wasn’t suitable for cats and dogs it definitely wasn’t suitable for the 3 poor kids that were subjected to it. Disgusting.
The Code Enforcement, needs to look at back yard of 602 N Orange. It smelled like dead animals so I followed the smell and in this back, you can smell animal urine and feces, there was a pile of sticks, branches and whatever about 6 feet high and probably 6 feet around. There has been woodchuckes, skunks, raccoons and other critters having a heyday in people’s yards, gardens. I saw this in my backyard as a couple neighbors behind me. Don’t know if anything can be done, but know if the animals have rabies, and other diseases.
