Officer appreciation for apprehension!
We want to thank Officer Weatherholt and Officer Garrison of the Henderson Police Department, for their work in apprehending a suspect recently who broke-in to a pharmacy we secure and monitor. When our Central Station operator, Chaz, received an alarm, he dispatched law enforcement, who responded at once. Before officers arrived, Chaz relayed more information over the phone to dispatch, including the number of suspects and their hoodie attire. Officer Weatherholt and Officer Garrison arrived and apprehended one of the suspects who was attempting to flee on foot. ALL the stolen merchandise was recovered, and the only property damage was to the building door. Team Sonitrol’s Jessica and Steve stopped by HPD with certificates of appreciation, cookies, and Sonitrol swag gifts to say thank you for their fantastic work fighting crime. GREAT JOB, Officers and Henderson Police Department, keeping our city safe! Shout-out to Chaz for a job well done, as well!
All-star operators!
You might remember these all-star Central Station operators from recent Sonitrol news. Chaz Fields dispatched on an alarm we monitor that resulted in an apprehension after suspects tried to rob a pharmacy. All merchandise was recovered! Maye Kincaide dispatched after receiving a video alarm of trespassers on a school roof. Not only are these operators on top of their monitoring game, but they were also both recognized this week for PERFECT attendance for the 4th quarter in Central Station. Way to go, Chaz and Maye! Our team is dependable and ALWAYS ON THE JOB.
Suspect Apprehended!
Shortly after midnight, our Central Station operator, Chaz, received an audio alarm and picked up sounds against the door of a pharmacy we monitor. He immediately dispatched police as he recognized the sounds of a break-in attempt. He accessed the video cameras and alerted responding officers that two suspects were inside the store, one in a hoodie. While one suspect evaded police, the other was apprehended, and all the merchandise was recovered by police, leaving only a damaged door.

Though suspects eventually gained entry, because of our technology and team, the police were already on their way to the scene. When you pair your Audio Alarm with Video access, in this case, our SonaVision system, our team can provide further information to responding police, such as suspect locations and apparel.

Law Enforcement Appreciation Day 2023
For Law Enforcement Appreciation Day, (L.E.A.D.), Team Sonitrol thanks our amazing law enforcement officers serving our communities. To show our appreciation, our Evansville and Muncie locations delivered cookies from Granola Jar and cupcakes from Charmed Cupcake Company to various police departments and sheriff departments in our regions.

Minimize water damage with a verified alarm
While we can’t prevent pipes from freezing and bursting, we can monitor your business property with a verified fire alarm and alert you when this unfortunate crisis occurs. This past week, our Central Station monitoring team alerted customers and dispatched fire department on several fire alarms that were caused by busted water pipes. In one case, our audio alarm detectors picked up the sound of water running before the fire alarm went off and was able to let the owners know. The fire department responded to the incidents, and the water department shut the water off in the buildings so repairs can be made.
Rather than wait until the holiday weekend is over to return to a flooding business, protect your property with a commercial fire alarm from Sonitrol, so you can be alerted as soon as possible and minimize property damage. Call us for a free consultation with one of our security design specialists at (800)444-1191.
