Dauphin businesses will soon have the opportunity to subscribe to a database featuring shoplifters in the area.
Riehl Securities is launching the program along with a variety of security services to businesses after concerns were raised last month by business owners.
Kerri Riehl, owner of Riehl Securities, explains how it works.
“I’ve got the test database that I am going through now currently and this came as a result of the meeting we had on May 17 in relation to the business community feeling they were victimized by shoplifting, trespassing and break and enter. As a result, you’ll be able to go into the database, you’ll have to subscribe before going on to the website. You’ll have to subscribe to the database and there are various packages that are tailored to meet people’s specific needs.”
The database features photos and information on shoplifters that can be shared by subscribers.
Riehl still hopes to meet with City of Dauphin’s Protective Services Committee to discuss more options and ways to prevent these kinds of crimes from happening in the area.
