Bangkok Bomber Probe: Security Cameras Work, Says City Hall

The investigation into Bangkok’s deadly bombing turned into a blame game after police said their progress was hindered by faulty security cameras and city hall shot back Tuesday, insisting the cameras are not the problem.

In the absence of solid leads into who carried out Thailand’s deadliest attack in recent history, a debate has emerged about the street-side cameras and whether they are working or not.

The national police chief first raised the matter on Monday, saying 15 of 20 security cameras along the main suspect’s getaway path were broken, leaving police with incomplete and blurry pictures that forced them to use their “imagination” to piece together his movements.

Police chief Somyot Poompanmoung also said that police lacked high-tech equipment to clarify images of the suspect, who is seen in a fuzzy video leaving a backpack at the scene of the blast in central Bangkok minutes before the explosion.

Fluoride debate gets its day at Austin City Hall

That will be the question coming this afternoon before two Austin City Council committees, the Public Utilities Committee and the Health and Human Services Committee. They won’t make a final decision today, but these committees could make a recommendation to the full City Council.

The previous City Council was not swayed by fluoride critics. Numerous scientific studies say that fluoridating drinking water at the level the city of Austin does is safe and is one of the best ways to combat tooth decay, the most common chronic disease among children and adolescents.
