Combatting crime in its Tempe parking facilities, AirGarage announced a new partnership with Flock Safety. 

AirGarage has deployed Flock's license plate recognition cameras as part of its ongoing commitment to providing a safe and secure environment for property owners, tenants and drivers, a press release explained.

Vehicle theft, a crime that often occurs in parking lots, surged in 2023, the release stated. Flock Safety's LPR cameras are effective tools for law enforcement to protect against and solve vehicle theft cases, along with common parking lot crimes like vandalism and break-ins.

The cameras send real-time alerts to security personnel and or local law enforcement when a stolen vehicle or vehicle associated with a known offender or endangered person is detected.

"LPR cameras are a powerful tool to proactively detect and deter potential security threats, ensuring the safety of our customers and the properties we manage," said AirGarage Head of Operations Bryan Sbriglia in the release.
