There have been grumblings from some owners of security cameras over whether or not the added surveillance is a crime-stopper or a crime-watcher.
In this week’s top surveillance video, a Canary home security system succeeded in not only capturing video evidence, but also in deterring the burglars.
A woman was across town when she received an alert on her smartphone that there was activity in her home. When she pulled up the live feed, she was surprised to see a group of young men inside. After realizing her home was being robbed, she activated her house alarm, which scared the group of burglars off within 10 seconds.
Police arrested one of the men involved in the break-in thanks to the video surveillance as police look for another suspect. It’s a perfect example of how a multi-layered security system can not only protect your home, but also help police nab the suspects so it doesn’t happen to anyone else.
The security footage leads off this week’s Surveillance Videos of the Week. Be sure to watch all 10 videos Security Sales & Integration has accumulated over the past week, including a business that was featured on ABC’s hit show “Shark Tank” having a critical piece of equipment stolen. Another video showed why you don’t want to leave your car running in your driveway.
