An incident that occurred in the early hours serves as a testament to the importance of vigilance and swift action—key principles that our team upholds every day.
The Incident: A Routine Check Turns Critical
Around 4:05 AM, one of our dedicated security officers was conducting a routine patrol in the Men’s Lobby Bathroom. What seemed like a standard check quickly escalated when the officer overheard two men enter the bathroom, their conversation loud and disruptive. Moments later, the sound of loud banging—consistent with a door being forced open—was heard.
Through the gap in the stall door, our officer observed one of the men causing the disturbance. Upon exiting the stall, the officer noticed that the Janitor’s Closet had been forcibly opened, and rolls of toilet paper, along with toilet seat covers, had been scattered across the floor. Recognizing the severity of the situation, the officer swiftly followed the men as they exited the building.
Decisive Confrontation and Evidence Gathering
Displaying the professionalism and assertiveness that Shergroup USA is known for, our officer confronted the suspects as they sat in two separate vehicles outside the building’s main entrance. The officer informed the men that they needed to remain on the premises to address the situation or face police intervention. Despite their adamant denial of any wrongdoing, the officer’s insistence was unwavering.
As the officer began documenting the vehicle tag numbers, one of the drivers attempted to block his license plate, angrily protesting that he was not involved. However, the officer explained that the passengers in his vehicle were implicated in the vandalism, making it necessary to record his information. The officer successfully captured the tag numbers before the suspects fled the scene.
Thanks to the officer’s vigilance, our team at the front desk was able to review CCTV footage. The footage revealed that the two men were accompanied by three women, whose images were also captured. It is believed that the women are registered guests, while the men are not. The officer’s quick thinking ensured that vital evidence was preserved, aiding the ongoing investigation.

Shergroup USA immediately reported the incident to the local Sheriff’s Office, providing all the collected evidence, including photographs of the vandalized areas, images of the suspects, and the vehicles’ tag numbers.
