CCTV surveillance helps to foil daring night raid

CCTV technology has helped to ward off a daring night raid and has already led to an arrest. Police from the Cheshire area were alerted by CCTV operators and caught up with a gang (who raided a haulage firm) who had met up in a car park near Ellesmere Port, on Merseyside, just before 1.30 in the morning. One man was later arrested by officers.

A spokesman for the R J Jones haulage firm, said of the gang’s botched theft attempt of lorries: “They probably would not have got far, all our vehicles have satellite trackers on them. The yard is also hooked up to CCTV coverage.”

CCTV Surveillance Ltd provide an unrivalled range of surveillance camera and recording systems which cover large premises like the one raided in this instance. The systems can cater for night shooting, when a raid like this is more likely to take place as no-one will probably be present, or they perform equally well in the day. Infra-red cameras, which take pride of place in our catalogue, are an ideal option because of their suitability for night time coverage. Because we go through with the customer what their needs are, and also install and maintain the kit, the service you will get is second to none.
