A 34-year-old man was shot at a gas station on Detroit's east side in November and police say facial identity technology helped them identify the shooter.
They grabbed a clear picture of him from surveillance video and ran it through their facial recognition software and got a hit. Police say this is something that can help crack cases but the tech is not the end all, be all, in any investigation.
"Using that technology we cannot and will not arrest somebody solely on a facial recognition match," Detroit Police Chief James Craig said.
