Shortly after 6 p.m. on Sept. 28, 2009, two gunmen entered Avi Pawn and Jewelry in the Minneapolis suburb of Richfield. After stealing a small sum of money, one of the criminals fired a single shot that grazed the store clerk and fatally wounded a customer. The local news usually supplements these stories with grainy, off-center pictures of the crime captured from store surveillance cameras. But when local television stations broke the news that evening, the images were startlingly clear. It took less than two days for the public to identify the men involved in the murder. After viewing footage from other local surveillance cameras, the police identified the getaway car and took a third accomplice into custody.

Holy Name’s newly built Emergency Care Center and status as a Medical Coordination Center for disaster preparedness helped drive the funding needed to invest in a new security management system. Hospital officials chose AMAG Technology’s Symmetry Security Management System with Symmetry Video. This offered Holy Name access control, video and alarm monitoring on one platform.
