The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office has partnered with Securonet, LLC to assist in solving, reducing and preventing crimes through a program of voluntary registration of private security cameras. Securonet, LLC is a Minneapolis based company that integrates public and private security camera locations into a cloud based application that is easily accessible and user friendly. The registration of cameras is completely free, voluntary and secure. The Securonet Virtual Safety Network geo-maps cameras providing a streamlined process for investigators to quickly and efficiently request video when a crime has been reported.
The Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office will be holding four information sessions on Wednesday, July 13, 2016 to introduce the program and answer questions. To be held at the Sheriff's Patrol Station, 1411 Paul Kirkwold Drive, Arden Hills. The sessions are scheduled to start at 8:00 am, 10:00 am, 12:30 pm and 2:30 pm.
