We thought perhaps the oddest Arrest of the Month occurred in North Carolina last month, and yet criminals continue to surprise and dismay. Unfortunately, dangerous and unwanted afterhours activity on automotive dealership properties takes a variety of forms- trespassing, vandalism, theft, loitering, and others.
While dealerships are typically focused on protecting their high-value inventory from issues like vehicle theft, parts theft, damage, and vandalism, there are, on occasion, more unusual threats that must be dealt with.
In this Arrest of the Month video, Stealth security professionals monitoring an auto dealership client in Virginia were shocked when they spotted some especially troubling activity in and around an inventory vehicle. Watch below to see what happened next:
Just after midnight, Stealth security professionals monitoring a Virginia auto dealership noticed an intruder on the property and activated audible onsite warnings. Moments later, the intruder entered an inventory vehicle, before exiting briefly and defecating in and around the vehicle. Stealth staff had already contacted police dispatchers, and officers arrived quickly, removing the woman from the vehicle, and placing her under arrest.
