The port city police are raising the idea of improving video cameras to monitor the city. Klaipeda residents and city guests are currently monitored by nearly a hundred video cameras. However, officials would prefer not only video recording equipment, but also speakers to alert people who like to urinate in public.
Disgust was lifted by dirty shorts
Gintaras V., a resident of I. Simonaityt Streets Street, recounted a recent confrontation with youth who decided to reach the underpass of the Vingis Passage.
One of them, the owner of a half-closed eye, trying to interweave the remains of his dirty shorts with what could once have had the courage and attract the interest of women, shouted: “What do you want?” . I did not laugh. I politely explained that citizens behave “I live here and buy dill and onion letters from my grandmothers at Vingis Passage. Such things cannot be tolerated,” said the resident.
We don’t hang cameras on trees.
The I.Simonaitytės Street resident was surprised by the fact that there is a video surveillance camera near the underground crossing, but for some reason it does not restrict those law enforcement violators.
“I was surprised. Only a few days after the incident, the cameras captured two guys urinating in that underground passageway again. They entered two, one of them wearing a mask. They thought that no one would recognize me. I couldn’t believe it,” infuriated the local. .
The citizen admitted that there is a lack of public toilets in the port city.
“Well, but maybe we should address those needs in a civilized way. There are stores where you can ask for a bathroom, there are coffee shops that will really leave a person in trouble for a few tens of pennies. But it is not appropriate to knock anyone off the wall. side and swing it, “said the resident. .
The flowers are stolen from the cemetery.
Marius Poimanskis, Chief of the Administrative Activity Branch of the Public Order Division of the Municipality of Klaip asegda, assured that 1,500 chambers are supervising public order throughout the city.

“Previously, they were monitored by employees of a private company that won a tender for this service. However, for two years, the image from these cameras has been transmitted to the premises of the Klaipeda Police Chief Commissariat, where the image is monitored by officers. I don’t know how much I could be penalized for urinating in a public place. ” take as soon as you notice, “said M. Poimanskis.
According to M. Poimanski, video cameras help detect various minor crimes.
The cameras even control the accesses to the Lébartai cemetery, since the thefts of flowers are constantly repeated there.
The cameras are even aimed at the Dangė River ditch, where ice fishing enthusiasts are seen in the winter and those who go by boat or pedal in the summer.
“Not only for violations, but also for the safety of the people, these cameras are needed,” said M. Poimansky.
It is true that in some places the video cameras are covered in tree foliage in the summer, but M. Poimanski explained that the mowers are sent to the places where the crowns must be pruned every few months.
“We took over a camera on Debrecen Street, the image of which is limited by the branches of the trees. We do not hang the cameras on the trees. But in the near future we will have to cut,” M. Poimanskis replied to comments from the residents.
Caught more than one
Virginijus Zubauskas, head of the Operational Management Division of the Klaipeda Chief Police Commissariat, explained that the port city would need some 300 video cameras.

“The southern part of the city is truly invisible. The patios, pathways, and sidewalks of apartment buildings could be better controlled. Another place where the city should have cameras is Smiltyne. We would very much like to see the entrances to the Old Ferry and the Maritime Museum. and the museum pier, “he revealed. V. Zubauskas.
Most of the cameras currently in operation extend through the central part of the port city.
It is true that there are cameras that monitor markets, sports fields, the Cruise Terminal and other places.
“Cameras have repeatedly helped detect crimes or misdemeanors. Of course, urinals have been caught, but no one keeps those statistics. Most of them are alcohol users. One of those places, where very often some people get Like not only taking a nap, but also the Karlskrona Square exists to do business, “said V. Zubauskas.
Wants voice features
The video cameras rescue the officials who explain the participants of the fights, bicycle thieves, help to identify the minors, drop the bags of the townspeople.
Police officers even discovered tricolor destroyers a few years ago in this way.
“It is an effective preventive measure that really disciplines the population. But the available equipment does not meet all of our needs. Until recently, we had to familiarize ourselves with the technical solutions offered by a manufacturer. It is not very difficult to install speakers alongside these cameras.” . , he urged the townspeople to divide and keep a safe distance. This could be done with the help of technology, there are cameras in all the parks and squares. “If you do not fear the cameras and urinate under them,” said V. Zubauskas.
