Conroe police investigate threats against city officials after Flock camera vote

The Conroe Police Department opened an investigation after city council members said they and their relatives received harassing calls or death threats [1]. The reports came days after the council voted against placing a measure about the city's use of Flock license plate reader cameras on the Nov. 3 ballot [1]. Councilmember John Sellars said he received a death threat by phone and that his wife received a harassing call [1]. Police said investigators are working with county, state and federal agencies to identify who sent the communications, preserve evidence and determine whether any laws were broken, with at least one city official telling FOX 26 the threats are tied to the Flock camera dispute [2].
