Surveillance Video captures Home Invasion

/in , , /by

A man was assaulted by three or four men when he arrived home, through his garage door at 5:40 a.m. It’s very apparent that the attackers knew he’d be arriving home at around this time and decided to wait for him, says a report at ksla.com.

2BThis recent home invasion occurred in the Dogwood South subdivision in Louisiana. Though video surveillance recorded the crime, it’s not clear who the assailants are, as they were masked. Detectives are working hard at getting some leads.

The man, along with his wife, were bound with duct-tape. The man suffered minor injuries. The couple’s two young children were not harmed. The assailants made off with money and jewelry.

Needless to say, neighbors are unraveled, and the victims do not want to appear on camera for a news interview. The presence of police that lingered around the victims’ house went anything but unnoticed, so a post went up on the sheriff’s department Facebook page.

Rumors had developed that there were more home invasions in Dogwood South, but the Facebook page straightened this out by reporting “This simply isn’t true.”In fact, it’s been a very long time since the last home invasion in this area.

Residents should not equate the vehicle burglaries in the area with the crime of home invasion.

The Facebook post is asking that people call in tips to 318-965-2203.

I guess the good news is that, unlike some home invaders, these crumbs spared their victims’ lives. But now the victims probably keep wondering if the assailants, who were armed, will return.

Could home invaders be waiting for you? You just never know. Certainly, the victim in this story never thought something like this could happen as he arrived home.

  • Have pepper spray in your home and car, ready to pull out.
  • Look carefully around before you exit your car in the dark.
  • Have the pepper spray in your hand.
  • Close the garage immediately; don’t let it linger open.
  • Make sure no obscuring shrubbery is growing near any entrances to your house or near any windows.
  • Before entering your car, even if it’s been in the garage, look in the back seat. You just never know if a dangerous person could have somehow gotten in and is waiting for you.

Introducing Angee Home Security

/in , /by

Meet Angee.

ANG2Angee (pronounced like Angie) will revolutionize home security in more ways than one. One of the features that sets Angee apart from other home security systems is that this system can learn about you and your family members, and then operate accordingly. Angee is the future, but this future is now here.

Check out what Angee offers:

  • Operates even during a power outage due to a built-in battery and 1.5 Gb storage.
  • Is small and portable, a handsome cylindrical design that can blend in with home decor.
  • Has data military grade encryption.
  • Motion and proximity detection tags that can be quickly and easily placed at all entryways and windows, so you need only one of the small portable units, regardless of the size of your house. Thus, a detection tag in a room on the third floor will allow the Angee unit, which is on the first floor, to tell when someone enters that third-floor room.
  • Recognition of household members’
  • Can connect to your mobile device, tablet or smartwatch.
  • Operation is voice controlled (as well as via smartphone) and includes personal-assistant-type tasks such as answering the phone.
  • Surveillance cameras (which rotate 360 degrees) that will follow intruders by detecting their presence; there’s no escaping “getting caught on tape.” But if you don’t want Angee to watch you during an intimate moment, no problem; just say “Turn away.” And remember, if the burglar says “Turn away,” Angee will disobey because it won’t recognize his voice.
  • Zero subscription fees.
  • The projected retail price will be $429.

The Birth of Angee

Angee Inc., is a start-up company that formed about a year and a half ago. Its founders had an ultra-strong vision and thus, introduced their system on Kickstarter. The founders needed experts in serial production, so hence teamed up with Dragon Innovation.

Who are the founders?

Tomas Turek is a serial software entrepreneur. He and his team have been working tirelessly for over 18 months to bring Angee to life.

If you’d like to support this futuristic layer of home security to bring it to the present, go to the Kickstarter campaign.
