MANAGE SUSPECTS: IDENTIFICATION, SURVEILLANCE,
RESPONSE, APPROACH and APPREHENSION
Introduction
Definition
The law we are talking about could be the Crimes Act 1961,
Summary Offences Act 1981, Trespass Act 1980, local by-
laws or statutory regulations or any action that threatens
security or safety.
Identifying a suspect
3
It is essential that you know the law and in particularly the
ingredients of offences that may be committed at your
security site. You also need to know the rules and policies at
the site. This is particularly important when watching
workers on the site who often turn into suspects.
Surveillance
4
It is often said that professional surveillance is an art. Some
operators are born experts and others develop the skill with
extensive training. Unless you have some skills it is better
that you don’t try and follow someone yourself. Also be
aware that your uniform will stand out and identify you as a
security officer.
Response
5
In most if not all situations the first response is to inform
someone else, such as your control room or supervisor. Any
situation involving a suspect will involve some level of risk.
You need to assess this risk regularly throughout the entire
operation.
The response also needs to be effective. Again this requires
knowledge of the site and the law, experience and skill.
Approach
6
attitude. You will also be able to see any weapons, tools or
property being carried.

Manage Suspects: Crime Scene Management
Introduction
23
In your role as a security officer you will often be the first
person, other than the offenders, at a crime scene and it will
be incumbent on you to guard and control the scene until
the Police arrive.
• Guard the scene. Do not let any persons into the scene.
Note details of any persons attempting to gain access
to the scene or any persons milling around outside the
scene. They could be possible witnesses or the offender
checking out their handiwork.
24
• Do not enter or contaminate the scene once you have
cleared it. e.g. Do not use the phone or toilet or make
coffee.

collect exhibits the following is a set of guidelines to adopt
when collecting exhibits;
Weapons

The most dangerous exhibit you may come across is a
weapon, and in particular a firearm. Ideally you should
guard the weapon until the police arrive. Do not touch the
weapon at all and cover it to prevent blood and body fluids
from becoming contaminated.
