Woke up this morning to posts on next door that several people had their cars broken into. The attached picture was from a neighbor down the road. The perps didn't come in my driveway because we didn't have any cars parked outside but everyone around me was probed for unlocked doors. Found out later that they did manage to steal a truck with an attached trailer and 4 wheeler.

That is what you get for use ring cameras. That is what happens when you mount your cameras too high. Also incorrect lighting. Failure to test the cameras at night with motion. A total waste of money and time on the camera installation.
Sorry the guy lost his truck, but he was stupid for leaving it unlocked and not have the trailer wheel chained

Truck that was stolen with the attached trailer. Unfortunately none of my footage helped since they never came close enough.

Cooler thief hit neighbors house
I've been tinkering with LPR stuff but temporarily using an Amcrest IP2M-853EW PTZ to see if I could get it to swing fast enough to snag a plate. The cams on the side of the house have zones set and then tell the PTZ to swing and zoom in - it has been working near perfectly during the day but I...
A mugging ... before and after
I meant to post this story a few days ago, but had too much on my plate. Last Sunday at about 10 p.m., a police officer knocked on my door and told me that someone had been mugged right down the street from my house just an hour earlier. The victim said the muggers ran up in the direction of...
