AI Surveillance Technology Leads to Arrest in Durban North

Durban North Bicycle Theft Recovery

At 04:13 this morning, Marshall Security’s Emergency Dispatch Centre received a critical alert from one of our AI-enabled community project cameras in the Durban North area. Surveillance footage identified a male suspect pushing a bicycle, immediately prompting a swift response.

Our Armed Response Officers were quickly dispatched to the scene. Upon arrival, the suspect abandoned the bicycle and fled. Despite a thorough area search, the suspect initially evaded capture. Shortly after, a homeowner on Balgownie Crescent – a Marshall Security client – contacted our Emergency Dispatch Centre to report their bicycle stolen, confirmed through their own CCTV footage. The recovered bicycle was promptly returned to its rightful owner.

The situation escalated when a second AI-triggered alert detected the same suspect walking in the area. Leveraging real-time guidance from our Emergency Dispatch Centre, our Armed Response Officers were redeployed. This time, the suspect was intercepted and apprehended as he attempted to flee towards the M4.

Further investigations by Durban North SAPS revealed that the suspect had been involved in another theft earlier this month at the same address, captured on CCTV.
