Last week, our Central Station operator, Hannah, received a door alarm from a commercial property we secure. She verified the alarm and dispatched police. Law enforcement officers responded at once. Officer Miles and Officer Kavanaugh caught a suspect attempting to get away with a computer. Officers made the apprehension, and our customer’s business was secured. Great job, Hannah and EPD!
Another apprehension! When our Central Station operator Maye received a video alarm at a local heating and air business we secure, she verified the alarm and dispatched police. Maye was able to provide responding law enforcement with details from the video, including the suspect’s description and attire, and she let them know he was rummaging around inside the fence and was gathering a handful of items. Evansville Police Department responded, and Officer Meeks made the apprehension. There was no financial loss or property damage for our customer. Their outdoor inventory was protected, and another would-be thief was stopped in action. Great job, to EPD and a shout-out to Maye!
