Suspect arrested attempting school break-in!

by

In the early hours of yesterday morning, our Central Station operator, Liz, received a motion alarm at a school Sonitrol protects in Bowling Green. Via the audio sensors, Liz heard rustling and sounds of someone moving around. She dispatched police right away.

Local police apprehended a person who was trying to steal copper. The suspect had broken-in by pulling off some siding to enter the building. While a traditional alarm company might depend on motion detectors alone, Sonitrol’s audio alarms allow our team to hear noises and disturbances when people attempt break-ins through unconventional methods, such as pulling off the siding of the building, as in this case.

If the suspect had managed to avoid the motion detector, Liz still would have known something was wrong because of the audio sensors. Great job, Liz! Way to go, Bowling Green Police Department!

Six apprehensions at Harley-Davidson!

by

Over the holiday weekend, Sonitrol and EPD were busy fighting crime. At around 3 a.m. on Memorial Day, our Central Station operator, Chaz, received an impact activated audio alarm at a local Harley-Davidson motorcycle shop Sonitrol protects.

Chaz immediately dispatched law enforcement, who were able to apprehend six people who had entered the building after breaking a window in a door to gain entry. A K9 officer located the suspects who had fled to hide nearby in a vehicle. The police not only apprehended the intruders, but all merchandise was recovered.

With a verified alarm from Sonitrol, you can trust our team will keep an eye on your property twenty-four-hours a day and alert authorities to any potential threats. Way to go Evansville Police Department! And nice work, Chaz!

Apprehension made before suspect gains entry!

by

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.

If you’d like to hear how a verified Sonitrol alarm can protect your property, call us today for a FREE security assessment at (800) 444-1191. Great job, Allison and EPD!

 

One apprehended by Sonitrol and EPD!

by

Shortly after midnight this past weekend, Central Station operator, Chaz, received a door alarm at a local elementary school monitored by Sonitrol and dispatched police. Evansville Police Department apprehended the suspect, who had gained entry because of a faulty door latch.

When our Central Station receives an alarm, they can provide specific details to responding law enforcement officers, such as which area or what door was disturbed. If it is an audio alarm, they can listen to live feed and relay what they hear to the officers driving to the scene. With a Sonitrol alarm that has audio and video verification, our team can give descriptions from live video footage as well. This capability to give law enforcement more information increases officer safety. Our law enforcement won’t just be walking into a business with a break-in without any information.

Verified Sonitrol alarms really do protect properties, and when police respond to a Sonitrol alarm, they know they aren’t chasing after yet another false alarm. Way to go, Chaz and EPD!

 

 

National Police Week appreciation visits!

by

This National Police Week, we honor the service and sacrifice of Law Enforcement Officers. To show our appreciation, our team at Sonitrol has been busy visiting various law enforcement agencies.

At Sonitrol of Evansville, we delivered cookies from our friends at The Granola Jar to police officers around the Tri-State. Flavia, John, C.Tom, Charles, Steve, and Sarah visited Evansville Police Department, Newburgh Police Department, Henderson Police Department, Owensboro Police Department, and Carmi Police Department.

When we wanted to give cookies to Vanderburgh County Sheriff’s Office, they decided to pay it forward. Sheriff Dave Wedding and Major Mark Rasure met our team at St. Vincent Early Learning Center, where we met with Executive Director Valerie Bostick and staff to make the donation. Our friends at St. Vincent happen to be longtime Sonitrol customers and fellow supporters of law enforcement, also.

Meanwhile at our Sonitrol of Muncie location, Misty took cupcakes from local baker Lani Stearns to five law enforcement agencies, including Muncie Police Department, Ball State University Police Department, Yorktown Police Department, Hartford City Police Department, and Albany Police Department. She also delivered cupcakes from Concannon’s Bakery to Delaware County Sheriff’s Office.

Team Sonitrol is thankful for the sacrifice and service of our law enforcement officers nationwide, and we couldn’t do our job of protecting businesses and commercial properties without officers responding to our verified Sonitrol alarms. To our men and women serving to keep our communities safe, Sonitrol thanks you!

 

 

Comprehensive protection for your business!

by

Traditional alarm systems only secure small areas within range of motion detectors, which means a motivated intruder can break-in through an unconventional entry point and maneuver around these devices if they are careful to stay out of range. Sonitrol’s audio intrusion systems provide wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling protection. No matter how quiet an intruder tries to be, they will make noise that our technology will pick up.

Whether it is them breaking in through a roof top or HVAC system, which has been done before, or whispering to an accomplice as they sneak about the premises, our audio sensors will hear this activity. This innovative audio technology allows our Central Station monitoring team to listen-in the moment there is an incident at your business and to determine if a real break-in is in progress. Our team can relay this real-time information with critical details to responding law enforcement.

This ability to verify alarms helps us have a faster police response and increases apprehensions. Our audio alarms integrate with our verified video monitoring, cameras, access control, and fire systems as well. Call us today for a FREE security consultation at (800) 444-1191.

 

 

Great job, Muncie Police Department!

by

On behalf of TEAM SONITROL, we want to say thank you to Muncie Police Department for a recent apprehension. When our Central Station operator, DJ, received a panic alarm at a convenience store we monitor, he heard the stress in a woman’s voice from the audio feed and immediately dispatched law enforcement. A special shout out goes to Officer Vogel and Officer Thornton for apprehending the suspect who was allegedly exposing himself and chasing after a woman in the shop. Misty took donuts from Dunkin’ Donuts and certificates of appreciation to say thanks. Great job, DJ and Muncie Police Department!

Highest apprehension rate due to verified alarms

by

While conventional security systems are motion-based, Sonitrol’s verified audio intrusion detection systems are sound-based. When an alarm is triggered, our Central Station monitoring operators can listen in to verify whether a break-in is in progress or if a false alarm has occurred. If it is a break-in, we immediately dispatch police and provide real-time information to the responding officers. Because of this ability to verify alarms, Sonitrol has the highest apprehension rate and the lowest false alarm rate in the industry.

Flashback Founder Files

In 1969, our founder, “Doc” Standring, opened his Sonitrol franchise, a verified electronic security company. Over fifty years later, we continue to protect commercial and residential properties with innovative technology and a team of professionals who are always on the job twenty-four hours a day. Call us for a free consultation at (800)444-1191. We love this excerpt from an archived interview with Dr. Standring:

When Standring opened Sonitrol of Evansville, he staffed it with part-time sales people and part-time installers. Standring himself worked weekdays as a dentist and evenings and weekends at his Sonitrol franchise. “We had very little overhead,” says Standring of the early days, “and I typed the invoices out on a typewriter at my house. I had a direct line in my office and when people would call me, they thought I was Sonitrol’s office.” Said Standring, “One of our first few customers was a personal friend who had a drugstore. We collared a guy coming through the roof the second night it was installed.”
