[committee] Fwd: Incident: Attempted Stealing from UCC

Hi SOC et al,

As mentioned in Presidents chat on Facebook there was an incident in 
UCC. I've just forwarded the email I sent to UCC for your information below.

UWA Security suggested installing CCTV for UCC, I was also keen to get 
your thoughts on doing that and also perhaps on installing a camera or 
two for the rest of Cameron Hall (ie. to provide surveillance for the 
cupboards).

Other recommendations from Security to consider installing card access 
for the building, and they also said they are happy to check that it is 
closed at specific times, or check IDs against a list provided by clubs.

Generally I think it's a good idea to make sure the last person who 
leaves the building locks up, which I think everyone does pretty well.

Please don't hesitate to let me know if you have any thoughts or 
information relating to this incident.

Best regards,

Felix von Perger
UCC President

to follow room closing procedure

Hi all,

So you are aware, there was an incident at UCC on Wednesday morning 
around 7am. Two people entered UCC, one by climbing into the room from 
the loft and the other after the door was opened from the inside, had a 
look around and presumably attempted to steal the safe and its contents. 
It also appears they took a shirt from the shirt rack (although that was 
inside at the time). Fortunately nothing of significant value was taken 
although there is some damage to the safe mount which will need to be 
repaired.

The incident has been reported to UWA Security and later to police, who 
categorised it as "attempted stealing". Feel free to review a timelapse 
of the webcam images 
<http://gozzarda.ucc.asn.au/timelapse/timelapse.mp4> (you may need to 
download first if it doesn't play from your browser).

*Please contact committee if you are aware of any further information 
relating to this incident.*

UWA Security recommended installation of a CCTV camera which they can 
use to monitor the clubroom, given that it is not a closed space and 
contains valuable equipment. We would need to push for this with the 
Guild ourselves though.

One thing to note however is that the building was left open at the time 
of the incident.

Hence, this is a reminder to all door members to please carefully follow 
the proper room closing procedure. Especially important is to ensure 
that *any loose valuables are placed in either the tool cupboard or 
machine room*, the tool cupboard and machine room are locked, and to 
*close and lock both the upper and lower doors of the stairwell and the 
fire escape if you are the last person or group* of people in the 
building. (if there are other people around, please remind them to lock 
up the building themselves when they leave). Please also remember to 
bring the shirt rack inside.

Best regards,

Felix von Perger
UCC President
