Police officer presence at retail locations mitigates theft challenges
Officers are infinitely more effective at deterring criminals compared to security personnel in retail settings because they’re fully vetted, licensed, trained and have knowledge of the local area and associated criminal activity.
Officers not only recognize a threat but also know the legal parameters of response. With that knowledge, they will respond effectively, in accordance with the law, to prevent or stop the crime while keeping your customers, employees and products safe, and your business from coming under future fire in the form of legal action.
