Read how an ADT Security system helped save an entire family!
On June 25, a naked man entered the Wildwood, Florida home of Terry and Colleen France and threatened to kill everyone. While the man tried to take a knife from Terry, Colleen frantically activated the home’s security system. The alarm sounded, causing the suspect to flee. It also sent a signal to ADT’s monitoring center in Rochester, New York where dispatch operator Karen Montesano called 911 in Sumter County, Florida. Within minutes of receiving the ADT call, the Sheriff’s Department dispatched deputies who quickly spotted the suspect’s car and made the arrest. Law enforcement later discovered that he was suspected of murdering his 62-year-old grandmother before going to the France home. The France family believes without ADT and the quick response from law enforcement, they also could have been killed. They got to meet those who helped save their lives at a LifeSaver event at their home on July 31.
