Surveillance video needed for entertainment district

George Street is located in the centre of historic downtown St. John's, Newfoundland, and is a popular entertainment district with 22 pubs, clubs and bars in a two-block span. With many hotspots open until 3am on weekends, the area is busy well past dark. While some establishments have surveillance cameras on the exterior of their facilities, the Royal Newfoundland Constabulary required a police-controlled public safety video system to help deter criminal activity and enhance emergency services response, as well as to collect valuable evidentiary information and aid police investigations.
