According to the Healthcare Cost and Utilization Project’s HCUPnet, every day, 321 people are shot in the United States alone. As a result, safety from irresponsible firearm handling and potential criminal activity is a major concern for those living in multifamily residential communities. Your residents need to feel safe from potential gun violence in their chosen community. See how Stealth’s live video monitoring can help:
At 10:49 p.m. a Stealth security operator took notice of several individuals loitering in the parking facilities of a Mississippi apartment community. A closer look revealed one of the individuals was carrying a firearm. Local law enforcement was immediately contacted and dispatched due to the nature of the call. Responding police officers were seen on camera engaging with the individuals and taking one into custody.
Help Safeguard Your Community’s Residents and Reputation with Proactive Security
Having surveillance cameras throughout your property may seem like the only step you need to take to secure your community. After all, potential criminals will see they’re being watched and think again, right? That’s often not the case. Unfortunately, evidence shows us that you need to take security a step further to actually help deter and disperse unwanted activity at your apartment community.
Live video monitoring is a proactive solution that goes beyond traditional security measures. Using a combination of trained security professionals and analytics-based cameras, our security operators monitor live feeds for anything untoward or suspicious and respond in real-time using client protocols to sound alarms or contact local police when needed.
Just as in the video above, when our operators spot dangerous activity, like a person with a firearm, they can call local police dispatch and give them real-time detailed information, which typically leads to elevated call priority and a faster police response.
Multifamily residential communities where threats are neutralized quickly and before damages or violence occurs will earn a reputation as a safe space where criminal activity isn’t tolerated. Safer communities are important to residents.
