The individual did not exit the vehicle or attempt to drive it anywhere, but the situation was alarming all the same. Local police dispatch was contacted and informed of the activity in progress. Officers arrived on site shortly after and could be seen scanning the property before locating the correct vehicle where the intruder had disappeared. The suspect had remained in the vehicle, and officers removed them before placing them under arrest.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Help Protect Your Valuable Inventory and Property from Criminal and Liability Risks\u00a0<\/span><\/b><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Addressing the risks and implementing appropriate security measures at auto dealerships can reduce the likelihood of theft, vandalism, trespassing, and other criminal activities on the premises. While gates and courtesy patrols may help, alone they\u2019re simply not the most effective solution.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">ECAM\u2019s live video monitoring, however, is a proactive solution that can help reduce and deter criminal and other unwanted activity at your dealership in real time. Just as can be seen in the video example above, when our highly trained security professionals are alerted to suspicious activity via our cutting-edge analytics-based surveillance cameras, they can take immediate action by sounding onsite alarms or contacting local police dispatch for intervention. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"auto\">Live video monitoring allows for more detailed information to be provided to police dispatch, which typically results in elevated call priority and faster police responses.
