The Colorado security firm comments on a recent article that it's one thing to capture a criminal on video, it's another thing to actually capture a criminal.
DENVER, May 9, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- An April 30th article on Denver Patch reports on two cases, both taking place on April 20 and both involving suspects who can be clearly seen on surveillance video. One case involves a robbery and the assault of a clerk at a Five Points supermarket, while the second incident was the theft of beer from a liquor store on South Federal Avenue followed by an assault on an employee. Metro Denver Crime Stoppers is currently offering a $2,000 reward for information leading to the arrest of either suspect. Spear Security Inc. notes that the two cases demonstrate the enormous gulf between catching perpetrators on video and catching them for real or, better yet, discouraging them from trying to commit a crime in the first place.
Security cameras are, obviously, extremely useful for identifying suspects and enforcing the law, says Spear Security Inc. However, the firm adds that video cameras by themselves might intimidate most people who might otherwise be tempted to undertake a "five-finger discount." Security guards, on the other hand, present even an experienced criminal with a clear and immediate challenge. The security firm notes that people who commit felonious acts are not generally known for their ability to think far ahead of their immediate needs, so a camera might not seem like an important threat. On the other hand, highly visible uniformed security guards make a very clear statement that any attempt at wrongdoing will be met with a strong response.
Spear Security Inc. says that it's not enough to simply have individuals who appear as if they could stop a suspect, they must actually be able to deal with an incident if one should arise. The firm says that its highly experienced personnel are trained in defusing situations before they start. In terms of theft, this can involve simply letting suspicious individuals know they are being watched and that the better course by far for them is to simply leave the location. Once a theft is underway, however, a skilled security guard knows how to apprehend a suspect and contact law enforcement without escalating the situation any further than is needed - keeping all parties as calm as possible to ensure a smooth resolution of the issue, says the firm. It adds that businesses large and small can protect their bottom lines by discouraging theft with a combination of surveillance technology and expert personnel.
