Just the other night, our Central Station operator, Allison, dispatched police on a Sonitrol video alarm we monitor for a local pawn shop. When you place your business protection in our hands, our twenty-four-hour monitoring team will be notified the moment there is any disturbance at your property. Our skilled operating team relays this information to the business owner the moment someone attempts to access the property, and if necessary, dispatches police, so you can rest easy.
Our team not only dispatches law enforcement but will provide critical details to the officers as they race to the scene. In this incident, Allison was able to give responding law enforcement officers descriptions, including the shorts and tennis shoes the person was wearing, as well as their specific location outside the property.
Unlike many traditional alarms police might respond to, officers won’t be walking in blindly when they respond to a verified Sonitrol alarm, which increases officer safety. Evansville Police Department officers were able to apprehend the suspect, who had gained access to the roof, before they could enter the building.
