Greensboro Car Thieves Use Tech to Evade Cameras, Leaving Residents on Edge
If something’s unusual—like a person loitering near a driveway late at night or a flashlight aimed directly at a camera—Ranger can instantly notify homeowners, trigger alerts, or escalate the event to emergency contacts.

Story
In Greensboro, North Carolina, a wave of vehicle break-ins has residents increasingly worried—not just because of the frequency, but due to the level of sophistication. According to a recent report by WFMY News 2, thieves are now using advanced tools to disable or blind home security cameras, making it harder than ever to catch them in the act.
One local homeowner was shocked to find her driveway camera blacked out during the exact time her car was broken into. The footage revealed a bright flash—likely from a high-powered flashlight—before the feed went completely dark. The next morning, her car’s interior had been ransacked. Similar incidents have been reported throughout the city.
This alarming trend signals a shift in the nature of crime: from opportunistic thefts to calculated break-ins aided by technology designed to neutralize standard security systems.
Traditional home cameras are no longer enough. While many households in Greensboro rely on motion-activated systems or basic video surveillance, these tools are proving insufficient when criminals actively work to bypass them. Residents are left with little to no evidence, and even law enforcement finds itself struggling to keep up with the tech-savvy tactics.
As car thefts rise and criminals get smarter, so must our defenses.
