Three South Carolina teenagers were arrested after allegedly cutting down a Flock Safety camera pole and beating its battery pack with a hammer until it exploded and burst into flames, authorities said.
The attack unfolded during the early morning hours of Aug. 15 along Harmony Church Road in the Edgemoor area of Chester County, according to WBTV, citing the Chester County Sheriff’s Office.
Investigators said the teens hacked down the pole before striking the equipment with a hammer, setting off the battery fire. The sheriff’s office estimated the damage at more than $5,000, WBTV reported.
Blaze Fuller, Samuel Carlisle and James Ryerson, all 19, were arrested and charged with criminal conspiracy and malicious injury to personal property, according to jail records reviewed by Fox News Digital.
Fuller was booked Aug. 18 and released the following day after posting $5,000 bond. Carlisle and Ryerson were also booked Aug. 18 and released Aug. 19, records show.
The blaze left a nearby resident worried it could have turned into something far worse.
“My house is over here,” Edgemoor resident David Cunupp told WBTV, pointing toward his property. “Could’ve caught fire and burned if it wasn’t for the rain.”
Cunupp said he was not necessarily opposed to the cameras but questioned the role of a private company in running the surveillance technology.
“They could be used for good, but I don’t see where a private company’s got access or running it instead of the DMV or the government,” Cunupp told the outlet.
The alleged fiery takedown comes as tensions over Flock’s automated license plate reader network mount nationwide, with privacy advocates, local officials and lawmakers challenging the spread of vehicle location databases.
Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., chairman of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime and Counterterrorism, launched an investigation into Flock this week, saying the company has built an “unprecedented national surveillance network” with more than 120,000 cameras across 49 states and more than 20 billion vehicle scans each month.

“Instead of serving discrete local investigations, as contemplated by our constitutional processes and safeguards, these camera networks harness artificial intelligence to pool what they capture into a national database that customers can search,” Hawley wrote in a letter to Flock CEO Garrett Langley.
Flock spokesperson Paris Lewbel previously told Fox News Digital the company would respond directly to Hawley’s questions and looked forward to explaining “the safeguards built into our platform and how law enforcement agencies use Flock to solve crime and find missing people.”
There are those who like to watch and those who like to be watched. Both are PSYCHO cases escalating in number and seriousness as we speak.

So what is the ‘NORMAL ‘ majority going to do about treating such mental aberrations before the PSYCHOS progress into full on PSYCHOPATHS?
Something simple Mr Nowhere Man that I noticed…God is about freewill…The Jews are what? CONTROL FREAKS! The inversion…It is everywhere! Clearly, they are not ‘of God’. God gave us the freewill to love Him or not, the devil is forever trying to take it away from us, and take us to Hell with him…The Great Accuser, that we (Mankind-Jesus) was not good enough to worship…The father says ‘That would be me Lucifer!’.
Just to add on from my last post…has anyone else realized that Panasonic has clearly won the contract to put up their SMART street lights at least across the ENTIRE WESTERN WORLD? Sounding the alarm people! These SMART street lights are WEAPONIZED! The LED lights can make you at least vomit and probably go as far as killing us! Dissenters are minced meat soon I bet…
Control freaks beyond belief.

It is the 5-10-15-20 min smart city surveillance. Do all our Panasonic SMART street lights have a camera yet? They certainly are bluetooth capable, tracking the idiotic covid vaccinated…I discovered that when I was showing my best friend her MAC Address once I put my phone in developer mode and turned on ‘detect bluetooth’…(this is how you do it!)
Yes,,, and we all seem to just drive past those signes at every shopping centre we drive to for our shopping needs?? we see we question.> >> but ?? What permits are or should be required by shopping centres for this further surveillance??? We are aleady monitored in many shops incl the BIG Warehouse…. ?? seems we have been silent from the beginning and now it maybe just toooo late>????Yes very Orwellian!
Governments prove they are anti-human when they try to make everyone behave like robots, the government SalesForce has been programmed to believe in a future of LockStep while the elites are exempt, as they all were exempt from the forced injections a few years ago. The elites and their minions will not be any happier when they have filled the world with robots and GMO mutants, in fact they will be more miserable, and turn on each other. Their psychopathic ways of attaining power and implementing power are their drug and they are hooked. The public is also hooked on the ancient bread and circuses, as the elites prove by building more and more stadiums, and by providing handouts with no re-training attached ( teach a man to fish … ). During the scamdemic the stadium in Sydney was shown to be dual-use, as a compound for children who were all forcibly injected, we heard two died on the spot.
The criminals the governments claim to be protecting us from are the alienated, who come from dysfunctional backgrounds. They don’t admit to being obsessed with revenue raising. There is no plan to apprehend elite psychopaths. It’s all a big lie.
