LATEST CCTV SPELLS TROUBLE
FOR FLY TIPPERS
Newcastle City Council has been cracking down on fly-tipping
and is warning potential culprits that the illegal dumping of
waste is a serious crime, with serious consequences.
In the last year, the Council has made
183 prosecutions for waste crimes. Over
£50,000 was paid in fines and two flytippers were sentenced to a total of 30
months in prison.
Gary Trotter, general manager of
Sunderland-based security firm, Hadrian
Technology, said: “Fly-tippers need to be
aware that new models of CCTV can be
used to easily identify them where as older
models may not have produced as clear or
effective footage.”
‘used to easily identify them’
Newcastle Quayside was recently
targeted by fly-tippers who dumped piles
of used car tyres in ten different locations,
outraging local residents. The perpetrators
were caught on CCTV outside PR and
Marketing agency Karol Marketing’s
offices.
The agency has a full HD quality CCTV
system, fitted by Hadrian Technology,
installed outside its building which they
used to quickly track down footage of the
suspects throwing car tyres from their
transit van onto the street.
The council is amassing a wealth of
material following the offence which
means when the culprits are caught they
may well be prosecuted.
Hadrian Technology installed the new
CCTV system, featuring High Definition
CCTV cameras from the leading Concept
Pro range, to help Karol Marketing’s
MD Stefan Lepkowski keep on top of his
security wherever he is.
Footage can be streamed directly to an
app on smart phones, laptops and tablets
giving users peace of mind wherever they
are in the world.
The technology can list any ‘events’
such as disturbances or break-ins, by date
and time, which can be easily accessed
through the app, and provide alerts via
email, if there is movement in a particular
area of a building or grounds. The viewer
can then instantly view footage - live or
recorded - to check to see if there is a
genuine problem or a false alarm and act
accordingly.
