Physical Altercation in California Apartment Community Caught on Cameras

Being a part of any community means engaging with neighbors, and while most of those interactions are neutral, or better yet, positive, it is natural for there to be some friction from time to time. Unfortunately, what begins as friction can escalate- and when it does, it can lead to other problems. 

Verbal altercations can become physical altercations, and in extreme cases, can result in violence and even death. Proactive security measures can help to intervene in these situations before they escalate to the point of extremes- watch how quickly local police responded when a physical fight broke out at this California multifamily residential community with Stealth security professionals keenly observing: 

At approximately 4:30 p.m., alert Stealth security professionals noticed that a group in the common areas of a California apartment community was engaged in a verbal altercation that quickly spiraled into a physical fight between two of the individuals. Stealth security operators immediately contacted local police dispatch due to the nature of the activity observed. Responding officers and emergency personnel arrived quickly. One individual was taken by EMS, while another was taken into police custody without any further incident. 

Help Maintain Your Property and Residents’ Safety with Proactive Security Measures 

One of the best ways to deter, disperse, and eliminate suspicious or unwanted activity at your property is to detect it as quickly as possible and take prompt action to intervene before the situation causes elevated damage, risk, or liability. Proactive security measures, like Stealth’s live video monitoring, can help you to do exactly that. 

Our live video monitoring takes a proactive approach to security. We use a combination of highly trained security professionals and cutting-edge technology to spot suspicious or unwanted activity as it happens. Our security operators monitor live analytics-based surveillance cameras to watch for activity in progress. They can activate speakers as needed to help deter potential criminals and unwanted trespassers. When warranted, just as in the example seen above, they can call the police and provide them with live reports on criminal activity, often before vandalism or significant damage occurs. 

Many communities rely on expensive on-site security staff to secure their properties- and while a security guard may help protect your property, they are naturally limited in scope and visibility- not to mention issues with proper training and liability. Rather than use this often-costly solution overnight and on weekends, remote video surveillance can take over and cover more ground for less money. 

Contact us today and speak with a multifamily residential security specialist to learn more about how Stealth’s customizable, cost-effective security solution can help deter unwanted activity in your community’s common areas and save you up to 60% on costs when compared to traditional security.
