February 19, 2011 Police charges security guard with theft of computer www.privateofficer.com
Ontario resident Adam Keophommachack, 43, was taken into custody Wednesday and booked on suspicion of grand theft and embezzlement, Reid said in a news release.
Just after 11 p.m. on Feb. 4, Keophommachack was working as a night-shift security guard at the medical facility and was seen on a internal surveillance camera system removing a 20-inch Dell computer monitor and concealing it under his work jacket before exiting the building, Reid said. The monitor is utilized in the Hybrid Operating Room to support sophisticated medical equipment and was designed specifically for that equipment, which renders it useless for any other use.
On Feb. 16, the Special Enforcement Team observed Keophommachack leave his residence and initiated a traffic stop after a brief surveillance. Keophommachack was arrested and a search warrant was served at his residence in Ontario based on the evidence in the case. The stolen monitor was not located at his residence and investigators suspect Keophommachack may have taken other property while working at the hospital. About 40 Honeywell Dolphin 9900 handheld scanners, valued at $80,000 were also recently stolen.
Keophommachack was working for a sub-contractor security company while the facility was being constructed and is not employed directly by the hospital. Keophommachack is also employed as a San Bernardino Community College District Police Officer and is currently on administrative leave.
