Radar device helping police "look inside" homes and buildings

PHILLIPS - A new report from USA Today shows some police agencies use a certain radar device to see into buildings and homes. They have also used it without getting a warrant.

Range-R uses radar to track movement and can even track breathing through walls. The USA Today report says that at least 50 police agencies around the U.S. have used the device since 2012.

None of the sheriffs we spoke with in the Northwoods had heard of the tool, but they did believe it could be useful.
