In today's evolving threat environment, relying on a single defense measure is no longer enough. Criminals and bad actors look for weaknesses, whether in camera coverage, communication systems, or perimeter posture. The most effective protection strategies are built on multiple layers that reinforce one another and eliminate blind spots.
When most people think about crime — whether it’s a break-in, theft, or targeted act of violence — they imagine a sudden, opportunistic event. A moment of chance. A lapse in judgment. But in reality, high-stakes criminal activity is rarely spontaneous.
Retail environments are increasingly targeted by both opportunistic thieves and coordinated crime rings. In 2024 alone, U.S. retailers reported an estimated $45 billion in theft losses, with a 14% year-over-year increase in shoplifting. High-traffic environments—especially self-checkout and exit zones—are prime risk points for loss and confrontations. Security guards help detect theft before it escalates, intervene in a de-escalated way, and maintain a visible presence that discourages repeat offenses.
As Independence Day approaches, business owners in Minneapolis must prepare for a dramatically different operating environment. With back-to-back events, increased foot traffic, and ongoing public safety concerns, the first week of July brings both opportunities and elevated risks. From large gatherings to fireworks displays and congested roadways, the need for advanced planning and situational awareness is critical.
In just one week, five people were shot in Minneapolis and St. Paul — two of them didn’t survive. This isn’t violence happening in the shadows or in far-off corners of the city. It’s showing up in public parks, on neighborhood streets, and even along major highways. It’s cutting through everyday life in places where people should feel safe — walking, driving, gathering with friends or family.
