Any time something or someone causes damage to your inventory, it impacts your bottom line. In terms of lost margin and productivity, thefts can affect your operations beyond just the pure loss.
In this incident, an individual was observed walking around an auto dealership lot by a Stealth Monitoring security operator around 9:45 p.m. The trespasser roamed about, looking at various vehicles.
While at first this was not a cause for alarm, the trained professional continued to watch. At one point, the suspect approached a sports car and violently shook the trunk. Our operator called to dispatch police and directed them to the specific area of the lot where the activity took place.
Responding officers arrived moments later. They confronted the trespasser, then handcuffed him.
