Smart home gadget ends a violent dispute by calling police (updated)
New Mexico police report that a smart home device (incorrectly labeled at first as a Google Home) intervened in a domestic violence incident by calling 911. When Eduardo Barros asked "did you call the sheriffs?" They overheard the altercation and called both negotiators and a SWAT team, who arrested Barros over assault, battery and firearms charges after a stand-off. Barros' girlfriend was hurt in the altercation. However, police contend that the situation could have been much worse.
