Case Study: King City Police reduces violence and improves safety with Hanwha Techwin America cameras

Hanwha Techwin Cameras Help King City Police Reduce Violence and Improve Safety

The King City Police Department faced a significant challenge with a high per capita homicide rate driven by gang violence in their city. To address this, a community committee developed a strategic plan that included the installation of a video surveillance system. Based on a recommendation, the department selected Hanwha Techwin America's PNM-9081VQ multi-sensor cameras to be deployed throughout the city.

The solution implemented by Hanwha Techwin provided the police with high-resolution video that is primarily used for investigations. The results have been measurable and profound; the department credits the camera system with a dramatic reduction in violence. Police Chief Masterson stated that while the previous year had 32 shootings and three homicides, there had been only one shooting since the cameras were installed, illustrating the system's significant positive impact on public safety.
