People Turning To Home Surveillance Cameras
Simple surveillance devices can help keep
homes safe from break-ins, and more people
are using the inexpensive devices to catch
thieves in the act. With more than 30,000
burglaries in Columbus every year, more
people are installing personal security
systems that they can view from their
computers, CrimeTracker 10's Angela An
reported Wednesday. From Web cams to those
installed outside your home, experts said
they could help you fight back against crime.
After his car was broken into, Steve Hill
installed security cameras around his Old
Town East home, An reported. "I've had
four attempts in a week, basically,"
Hill said. From his home office Hill can
monitor the surveillance system that
captured criminals in the act. "This is
the person that was walking in front of my
home at 2:30 in the morning," Hill
said, watching surveillance footage.
"If you look really closely, he has his
fingerprints covered up as he's trying my
door right now. And he actually looks in,
looks right up at the camera a couple
times." Police said it is hard to tell
whether or not personal home surveillance
will make a difference when it comes to
stopping a break-in. But Hill said it
has made a difference, when it comes to
peace of mind.
