What do you think of their tactics which involve sprinting through the store after people? And they couldn't get that guy on the ground...

Try cake decorating as a new career.

Seriously, this is from watching too many episodes of COPS. I like how the skinny bloke is just lifted up and carried back into the store. Just curious as to why there is often no-one outside waiting for them to come through the barriers ?

Nice clear footage and it brings back memories of a woman who was on her knees pleading to do anything not for us to call the cops (she had over $800 US in fragrances) and I mean ANYTHING .............. but then we found out why, overstayed on her visa, working illegally and other thefts under a false name. A $20.00 cable will hold the monitor to the wall or a simple perspex screen would assist too.

Good video + could be a learning tool as well. I especially liked the parts where the girl kept knocking the computer monitor of the desk and where the 2 males were slicing open cd packages......How many times have we seen that before!

Very well put together... and it does spotlight some of the more, ah, interesting, moments we have in the field. :D

I do have a small issue with the fact that they weren't even trying to talk the subjects back in; but then, my company has some stores where "just pick 'em up and carry 'em back" is the running SOP too, due to the area.

As for not getting the guy down... I had a 40-yr-old out-of-shape female fight myself and two of my LPOs for a full minute last week before we got her down and cuffed. Adrenaline does amazing things to the human body.

I didn't see anyone sprinting through the store. I saw officers coming out of the AP office camera room to get out the door and stop people before they escaped.

As far as not "talking them back in"? Everyone's got their own style, but I suggest the "ask, tell, make" model. You get a chance to walk in on your own before I take a hold of you and bring you back in. It's an officer safety issue. People that argue and resist are stalling for time so they can think of a way to escape, get their buddies there, hurt you long enough to escape, or remove a weapon and kill you. It's the same in police work. Once we have a reason to detain or arrest someone, we don't talk them into handcuffs, we put them into handcuffs before they can think of a way to make the scene more dangerous for everyone involved.

Than you and I must not have been watching the same video. I clearly saw several instances of these guys sprinting (and almost running people over) to get out the door.

Target generally has one entrance/exit, so you know where they are going to go, just stand out front.

No wonder Target is going away from the APS position.

.


EVERY Target I know of has 2 sets of doors. Not to mention the Emergancy exits they so often love to use.

I watched the video, the only things I would have done diffrent is the moment the Bald black dude began to fight in the office it would have been "teeth to tar and handcuffs. They had 3-4 people in there and should have been easily able to drop him and cuff him.
Also, if you have more than 1 guy on, the moment you have concealement, one guy posts up outside witha radio/cell phone, you stop them in the vestibule. Less chance of running, more things to bounce them off if they fight.

Otherwise, rest of the video is awesome..

You say sprinting "through the store" as if they crossed 17 aisles, through cosmetics, linens, and cold foods to get to the door. In reality, they came out of the office right to the door, which (knowing the layout of Target stores) is not very far. Irregardless of the distance, what's the problem? It's unprofessional to run now?

I'll bet that in most cases they did have an officer waiting outside. The guy running is trying to make sure that his partner isn't facing a suspect(s) alone for any longer than he has to. I can respect that.

I will break it down for you since apparently you cannot see.

The first segment with the push out. At approximately 54 seconds the guy leaves. The AP office door opens and suddenly a plainclothes guy comes barreling out from BEHIND THE CAMERA SHOT. A uniform comes shortly out of the office. Why not have the plainclothes waiting outside? Hmm..

At 1:15 the plainclothes bear hugs some dude and carries him back, not the best approach. At 3:13, the uniform barrels out of the office and almost runs over employees and the EAS.

Why do you defend this crazy stuff? People could have been hurt because of Target AP's stupidity.

Most of the videos they did not have someone waiting outside - maybe you need to slow the tape down so you can actually see what is going on. Were you just jamming out to the music?

Oh I forgot - yes it is unprofessional to run through a place of business, especially one where you work. (PS the problem is hauling ass through the store can cause major accidents and lawsuits when you trample a small kid...)

LPGuy

Because you're making elitist accusations against actions of which you've seen a portion of a seconds-long video clip. No one here knows what other elements may have created the situations that were shown in the video. I'm sure if someone filmed you doing your job and pulled select clips out to show other people we'd find some curious things as well.

Seriously, I don't critique other people's work with so little information. Apparently you think you it's worth your time to do so. To each his own.

And besides, it doesn't seem like a earth-shaking controversy anyways. Walk? Run? Move at a shuffle somewhere in between to catch the bad guy? I don't really care one way or another. If you can safely and effectively get the job done, then by all means do so. Sometimes that means acting in ways that other people, especially ones watching a seconds-long video clip on Youtube, don't understand or appreciate.

I don't work LP anymore. But when I did, I had someone on the camera maintaining surveillance with someone waiting outside. To regular people, this is not rocket science, I guess that is the reason you became a cop, basic LP concepts were a little difficult.

This video is a conversation piece and I can criticize what I want to all day long. Look at the ruger video I posted - people criticized left and right and apparently you have no problem with that.

Plain and simple, you like certain things and when people **** up, you get up in arms. I am passionate about LP and when people **** up and make "us" look bad I am not afraid to speak out.

I am glad I am out of LP so I don't have to deal with ignorant LP/Cops.

I see that this is becoming personal for you. Hopefully your creative little insults helped boost your faltering self esteem here on this message board.


This video is a conversation piece and I can criticize what I want to all day long. Look at the ruger video I posted - people criticized left and right and apparently you have no problem with that.

I already granted that you can criticize all you like. Having worked LP before, I know that there are many elements to an apprehension that a video tape doesn't capture; vice versa, there are many elements to police work that a patrol car dashboard camera doesn't capture, yet citizens love to critique them to death. Either way, I think it's foolish to do so without a clear idea of what actually occurred.

wow this stuff is crazy. clearly, if target wants to use those types of physical tactics to apprehend shoplifters (which i am cool with), they need to provide their employees with some training. i saw numerous examples where employees (including regular red shirt name tag wearing folks) could have been sucker punched or worse, had the bad guy wanted to. also they are horrible at getting people under control, i think mostly because no one has ever trained them in pressure point control tactics. also that bear hug i saw soooo many times is stupid and bad, bad and more bad.

but wow. i dont run after people like that in my police job.

The LP guy sprinting after this lifter had nothing to do with the innocent shopper getting hit? I guess we can't tell since we only see a few seconds worth of video. You know, sometimes LP has to do what LP has to do to get the lifter. Who cares about that bystander who just got hit and will probably get a substantial amount of cash.

No, you're picking a fight, considering you just posted ANOTHER thread with videos you deem "wrong".

Fine, we get it, you are the grand master end all be all of Loss Prevention, we bow before your greatness. We're building the shrine as fast as we can.

But while your waiting, I've done this 12 years, we chase, we handcuff, we fight, you know how many times in 12 years we had a problem? ZERO, how many complaints have i had? ZERO. How many times have I had to go to court for a shoplifter? ONCE (since he was on his last strike.)
But by YOUR standards I should have killed at LEAST 10-15 innocent bystanders by now! I should have been sued for MILLIONS of dollars and had companies I've worked for shut down! I must be extremely lucky huh?

Or maybe I'm damn good at what I do and even though i do all thees things "wrong" I'm smart about them, i know when to call off a chase or not fight or to let it go.

As I said before, you must be a hoot to work with :)

bull****.

Lpguy said start another thread to discuss another topic so I did.

If chasing people, pepper spraying people, slamming people to the ground, sprinting through parkings lots were safe/good for the company and the best way to do LP, don't you think every single retail company would be doing those things?

The best way to run an LP department is where the department reduces liability for the company. Just because you haven't run into anything in your 12 years, doesn't mean everyone is as smart as you. Retail LP hire whoever fills out an application - it is not that hard to get a job in the LP department.

If you have caught an average of 100 people a year (by yourself and I am being generous) you have caught 1200 people over your career. That is a small fraction of the number of shoplifters caught in the US over that time period. Don't be naive man.

What you are describing is not the norm, for any company in either security/LP. People in retail LP do not stick around long. You sound like a fool when you say that every person in your company is personally recommended and the cream of the crop as far as security guards go. (Think about it, you are a security guard)

The way you go about apprehending shoplifters is few and far between as well. Your company is one of the last few that allows pepper spray and hands on/pursuits. The reason? Idiots like you think they are John Wayne and go overboard.

You are either incredibly stupid or just naive since you have worked 12 years for the same company in the same place without experiencing other LP work.

I can also tell you, I would rather walk away from a 20 yr old kid who stole a shirt than get in an altercation and potentially get hurt/cause damage to others. If you want to start a thread with "That poster LPCap is a wussy" by all means do it, but I know that I will not only still have my job at the end of the day, but I will do a whole lot more with my life than spending 12 years being a wanna be who never was.

I suspected it all along, but thanks for confirming it. LPCap is a forum troll who is only here to antagonize people who are just "security guards." His use and context of the term is clearly meant to be an insult to the security professionals here. The rest of his above-written comments (referring to "wanna bes," etc.) speak for themselves.

LPCap's "contributions" to this forum are posting links to videos and asking "Comments?" Then when people respond in a manner that he doesn't agree with, he insults them without actually debating the situation in question. He has already stated that he no longer works in loss prevention, which is clearly a boon for the industry.

To the moderators: Can we work on removing him from the forums? I think it's pretty clear that he's not adding anything by his presence here and just trolling for arguments to get into.

"Love the wall of shame DOD. We used to have one of those when I was on the street level narc unit...They make for some good conversation pieces on dull days."

"Cluttered, disorganized, sh*t everywhere, whatever you wanna call it, or as previously referred to "a pet peeve", is sometimes roundly seen as a fault."

"We got a great one 2 days ago, had a guy smoking pot in the store, he stole beer, drank it in the bathroom, then tried to fight us, got pepper sprayed, so the pic is him, red faced, drooling and big gobs of snot coming out of each nostril."

And these are all from just the last few days. Higher standard of decorum? You have got to be kidding me.

The reason I rarely post here is because the standard of decorum is incredibly low. Only RLPX compares to this site in appealing to the lowest common denominator.You forgot to add some gems of your own.

Continued ignoring of the moderator's request for some common decency will result in Red Hammer of Savings day.I'm hoping my request will be heeded. If not I will take action.

.............This site is held to a higher standard of decorum that some other sites.

So allowing "content" such as this.....

"When the world's last politician is strangled using the entrails of the world's last priest, then we shall know peace."

.......is considered "a higher standard of decorum"?

I do not mean any ill-will toward the source of that signature line quote, but if standards are to be "enforced" then I would take that to mean that any offensive or controversial content(s) would be reasonably addressed.

IMHO!;) As a practicing Catholic and a relative to a couple politicians.
