GE Security Inc.’s MobileView mobile digital recording system has helped authorities arrest a suspected attacker on the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) Broad Street Line in Philadelphia.
Family members notified authorities of the suspect’s identity only hours after authorities released surveillance video of the brutal attack. The hammer-wielding suspect allegedly attached a 20-year-old SEPTA passenger. The event was recorded by GE Security’s MobileView video surveillance system.
MobileView is designed for buses, light-rail cars, delivery trucks, armored cars and other vehicle environments.
