Trained Security Personnel Worked with Police to Capture Construction Trespassers

When trespassers access a construction site, they can undermine the valuable work that’s been done. Without an effective way to deter them, uninvited visitors could cause significant damage not only to your project, but to themselves, as well.

Each of the construction sites in the following video utilize Stealth’s proactive remote video monitoring solution. Because we were watching in real time, damage and loss was minimized, and in most cases, prevented altogether.

PTZ Camera Helps Keep Close Tabs on Trespasser

Around 11:30 one night, a trespasser was spotted making his way around a construction site. One of Stealth’s trained security personnel activated the on-site speaker warning. Because the suspect ignored the warning, our monitoring operator called to dispatch police and continued to follow his movements with a Pan-Tilt-Zoom (PTZ) camera.

Our security professional was able to give officers a description of the trespasser, including where he was located on the site. Within minutes, police were on the scene. Officers intercepted the perpetrator and took him into custody.

Security Personnel Directed Police to An Intruder Hiding Out in A Portable Toilet

Our security professional provided police dispatch with a description of the individual and where he was located. When responding officers arrived they knew right where to find the hidden trespasser, whom they promptly arrested.

We Called Police on Two People Who Climbed Construction Site Fence
