Late Night Group Congregates in Multifamily Parking Lot, One Arrested

Quiet enjoyment, as those in the multifamily residential space well know, is the right to inhabit or use certain property without disturbance- essentially, a law that protects residents from intrusions. But what kinds of scenarios can present a risk to property owners and managers with this law in mind? 

Late night gatherings, gangs or congregations of residents or non-residents hanging in the parking facilities while blocking through traffic, perhaps? 

At nearly 3:00 in the early morning, two vehicles were observed by alert Stealth security monitoring staff pulling into the parking facilities and parking improperly. Several people appeared to be congregating around the vehicles, and due to the nature of the activity, Stealth security operators contacted local police. Officers arrived on site quickly, interacting with the group, and taking one of the individuals into custody. The others cleared out of the area, and the vehicle of the person arrested was towed, with no further incident.  

Help Protect Your Property from Security and Liability Risks with a Proactive Solution 

Lawyers familiar with tenants’ rights suggest that in order to avoid breaches of quiet enjoyment, property owners and managers should take their communications seriously. However, this approach is reactive rather than proactive.  

A proactive security solution can help ensure that your residents’ abilities to enjoy their home is without disturbances. Live video monitoring offered by Stealth is just that- a proactive solution.  

Live video monitoring uses video analytics to observe your property for activity rather than simple motion, and the human intelligence of trained security professionals who respond to that activity, determining when interventions are needed. When a Stealth security operator spots something suspicious, like what was seen in the video above, they can sound onsite alarms, contact onsite security, or even local police dispatch when the situation requires it. 

Just as in the video above, police typically prioritize and respond quickly to our calls, thanks to our ability to provide real-time information and updates as we continue to monitor the situation.
