Which action is included in after-robbery procedures aside from alarms and notifications?

• A. Provide information/video request to the police
• B. Bury the evidence
• C. Reset the alarm and ignore the footage
• D. Close the store permanently

Answer: (A)

After a robbery, the goal is to support safety and law enforcement while keeping evidence intact. A key step in after-robbery procedures is providing information and forwarding surveillance footage to the police. Sharing details about what happened and making the video available helps investigators identify suspects, reconstruct the sequence of events, and preserve important evidence for the case. It’s important to avoid altering or deleting footage and to coordinate with the police on how to export or share records, while keeping privacy and data rules in mind.

Other actions you might think of aren’t appropriate as part of these procedures because they would hinder the investigation or cause more risk: hiding or destroying evidence is illegal and dangerous; resetting the alarm and ignoring the footage would obstruct law enforcement and compromise security; closing the store permanently is not a practical or required step in responding to the incident.
