Better article:
The video is 100% worth it.
They pull over with the back of their car in full view of camera 1, pull out a gun, and shoot camera 2...
Then just drives away with camera 1 still rolling.
Like, I feel like the cameras aren't that great to begin with if cops can't catch this person.
It looks like the cops caught him via an update to your linked article.
They're claiming $500,000 in damages. That's a lot of money for a handful of shitty cameras. I wonder how the vendor arranged that kind of deal with the government.
Probably charging him for lost revenue.
Those cameras are expensive and expensive to install.
$100k/ea expensive? In what world is that a responsible use of public funds?
'Murica
Have you look at portland goverment spending? It's the definition of irresponsible.
based as fuck.
New billboard time --"according to the city of Portland, traffic cameras are worth $100,000 each. We don't know about all that, but they sure do contain a lot of copper.."
:P
