called and asked the local power company about it, it wasn’t theirs. Then a federal agency came forward.

Brian Clegg contacted SRP Electric about a strange box on the pole located at near Glendale and 21st Avenues overlooking his house and a nearby school.

However, as reported by KNXV, Phoenix police and SRP said the device wasn’t theirs and eventually utlity van marked, “Field Pros” came and removed it.

Shortly after the story aired, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms and Explosives came forward and admitted the box belonged to them and was there as part of an ongoing investigation.

“I don’t feel safer,” Clegg responded when told about the new development by local media.

“I feel that my privacy has been violated,” said Clegg.

I can see why they made a fake company, if the bad guys see a law enforcement marked truck/van or what ever they move to a new location making it harder to track them

Strange...the video said that SRT removed it and the field pros installed it. But the article says Field pros removed it. But none the less. These things are common. Cameras, as well as open air collections systems are routinely used by LEOs. You'd be surprised at what toys they employ... and after they get some evidence from these Publicaly placed devices without warrants...they can then get the warrants to put more devices in your home or search it.
