ASPCA says microchip scanners help cops solve cases
The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) and NYPD, who have been working together on a project called the ASPCA/NYPD Partnership for nearly five years, have entered a new phase in their relationship.
ASPCA and NYPD are now concentrating on getting microchip scanners into every police precinct in the city.
The scanners could help locate lost animals that have had microchips implanted in them, according to experts, who said the scanning devices could also be useful in tracking down on criminals, experts said.
