The Los Angeles Police Department is ending its agreement with Flock Safety, a company that operates surveillance cameras throughout the city.

LAPD announced that it will allow its agreement with the company to expire Saturday, ending the department's three-year relationship with the security firm - at least for now.

Flock cameras capture images of vehicles and license plates on roadways. LAPD says the cameras can help track down suspects involved in crimes.
