Take the Grammy-winning R&B superstar Aliaune “Akon” Thiam, for example.
Last week, Akon was caught and arrested by police in Georgia after authorities executed a bench warrant for his failure to appear in court on a case involving a suspended license, according to TMZ.
Per CBS, police tracked him down using a network of Flock surveillance cameras, which flagged his white Cybertruck as it drove through the Atlanta suburbs.
Local police tracked the Cybertruck to a local auto shop called Tint World, where Akon was likely having the windows darkened.
He was arrested and spent roughly six hours in custody according to CBS, before he was released.
