George Street is a popular entertainment district in St. John’s, Newfoundland, with 22 bars, pubs and clubs in a two-block area. Not surprisingly, it is an area that keeps the local police busy.
“The chief of police decided to address the number of calls that we were getting from the George Street area,” says Sergeant Roy Hoskins. Although some of the establishments had surveillance cameras outside their building, the Royal Constabulary and the local government decided to turn to a police-controlled camera system. “We wanted the cameras to assist police officers in investigating any crimes, so we wanted something with the clearest images we could get with the technology available.”
