Atlas Security’s Control Room received a phone call reporting a robbery incident near the Humerail area within Summerstrand.

The incident began when the victim was robbed outside a hotel within the Summerstrand area. She immediately ran toward the nearest security presence for help, where a panic activation notified Atlas Security.

Armed Response Officer Bravo 59 was dispatched immediately. Upon arrival, the armed response officer met with the client to obtain further details before conducting a search of the surrounding area.
