The network of Neighborhood Cameras that protects the streets of Colonia San Antonio, managed to thwart a robbery inside the Parish of San Antonio de Padua.

At approximately 11:36 pm on Tuesday, May 4th, the Network was notified about a man wearing a black hoodie and a suspicious attitude, who was carrying a rod and was seen trying to open the door of the bell tower of the San Antonio Parish.

The representative of the Neighborhood Camera Network Group immediately went to the scene and as soon as the alleged offender noticed the presence of people he fled towards Allende Avenue. At the same time, the 911 Emergency System was notified and the motorized police responded to the incident.

The Red de Cámaras Vecinales has been committed to teamwork for several years, and actions such as what happened tonight, show that teamwork pays off, working together and only together, citizens can protect themselves. They urge other neighborhoods to organize themselves into neighborhood networks to protect themselves from insecurity.
