Housing hundreds, even thousands of people in multifamily residential communities comes with immense liability concerns. Negligent security claims can create a myriad of issues for your bottom line, including insurance costs, reputation damages, lower occupancy rates- the list goes on and on.
Effective and proactive security measures can help deter and disperse issues before they cause expensive damages or create additional risks.
In the above video, at roughly 1:30 in the morning, Stealth security professionals caught sight of someone out of place near the dumpsters at a California apartment community. Taking a closer look at the individual, they realized that the person was loitering in the area. Operators kept watch, and the individual appeared to start a fire. Audible warnings were immediately sounded, and the operators contacted local police dispatch to inform them of the activity. The fire-starter appeared to leave the area before officers arrived, however, in a matter of minutes after our call, a police officer was seen patrolling the area and extinguishing the fire before it could spread.
