With security cameras becoming more common in workplaces around the world, criminals are finding it harder to get away with their nefarious deeds. In fact, nearly 7 out of 10 crimes are solved with the help of video footage. When you install retail security systems in Atlanta for your home or business, you don’t know what your camera’s going to pick up. Here are some examples of cases where security cameras helped catch the bad guys.

A man in Johns Creek, GA, went on a crime spree breaking into homes wearing nothing at all… except a cowboy hat. In this story – posted on April 1, 2014, but it’s no joke – the perpetrator, Ashdon Gibbs, broke into several homes while naked, then rummaged through people’s refrigerators and drank beers while watching Braves games. He told police he was a U.S. Marshall, but it turns out that wasn’t true.
