Sonitrol Pacific security audio of banging and voices resulted in a school security guard locating kids on the school’s roof April 16.

Monitoring Operator Ashley Sutton received an impact-activated audio security alert from the school after 7 p.m.  She heard banging sounds followed by kids’ voices and called the school district’s guard service to investigate.

When the security guard arrived at the school, he found eight kids on the roof.  Four ran away, but four others were detained until their parents picked them up.

The kids didn’t go inside the school, but the audio sensors inside the school detected them anyway.
