Documented Incident
Marshall County, Indiana commissioners vote to cover six county-funded Flock cameras
Event: October 19, 2026 · First reported: October 20, 2026 · 2 sources
Marshall County, Indiana commissioners voted on Monday to have all six county-funded Flock Safety cameras covered within 14 days. Two commissioners supported the measure and a third, Stan Klotz, abstained. The decision applies only to cameras funded by the county and does not affect city-funded Flock cameras operating within Marshall County. The reasoning behind the vote and whether the move is temporary or permanent were not detailed in the reporting.
County-level decisions to physically disable automated license plate readers show that local elected boards, not just city councils, are exercising direct control over surveillance deployments. The split jurisdiction between county and municipal cameras also illustrates how patchwork ALPR networks can persist even after one governing body pulls back.
