In January 2023, a home in O'Fallon, Missouri, became the target of a terrifying late-night home invasion by four armed individuals. Fortunately, an officer from O’Fallon PD was already on his way to the area after a Flock camera alerted him to a stolen vehicle in the neighborhood. This swift response allowed officers to apprehend the suspects, bringing some relief and resolution to the impacted family. Reflecting on the case, Detective Matt Myers of O'Fallon PD shared, “Without Flock, there would have been no way to charge somebody. It probably would have went unsolved.” Erin Schatteman added, “Flock really was the reason why everything came together so perfectly in a very imperfect situation.”
