QUICK APPREHENSION AT MANUFACTURING FACILITY

In late November, at 4:04am, a Sonitrol operator dispatched the Lakeland Police Department to a manufacturing facility.  The operator informed Police that she had received an audio alarm and could hear heard what she described as hostile and threatening sounds of glass breaking and movement from the lobby audio sensor.  Because the operator was able to verify to Police that an actual event was taking place, not a false alarm, they acted quickly and responded to the location.  At 4:22am, police confirmed to the operator that they had apprehended the suspect.

Since 1964, Sonitrol has been the industry leader in verified electronic security, providing customers with a single source of integrated security solutions for intrusion, video, access and fire. Sonitrol was founded by Anderson, Indiana Police Officer, Al Cronk, who’s goal was to help law enforcement safely apprehend criminals.  Sonitrol’s unique audio verified alarm detection methods provide the tools needed to accurately detect true alarm events, versus false alarms, and notify the law enforcement appropriately.  This unique technology has helped law enforcement apprehend more than 175,000 documented criminals, more than any other security system in the market.
