    It’s not the 10 grand. It’s that a gun was stolen. Someone who walks into a store and steals a gun is the kind of person you want to identify and track down. If we catch them stealing a gun on camera, we can follow them out of the store with the other cameras and grab a plate number from a car.

    It happened on another occasion where we saw the gun being stolen in real-time. We were able to track them on camera and call the police with a plate number and have the gun recovered.

    We didn’t physically stop them from stealing the gun because that’s the kind of syluspect who will start shooting, and half the customers would pull out their own handguns and “help” by putting more lead into the air.
