Security guard sued
OAKLAND CBS SF — A security guard seen in a video allegedly beating a wheelchair-bound studentmade an appearance in an Oakland court Monday to face that video evidence.Marchelle Mitchell’s defense lawyer says the video, which shows the guard unleashing an attack on the disabled student, doesn’t tell the whole story, and suggested the school and the student are partly to blame for the incident.Nabiel Ahmed, Mitchell’s attorney says the scuffle may have been caused by aggression from the student.“It is conceivable that my client was acting self-defense based upon an aggressive student, and a known aggressive student, that his actions may not be morally accepted, but however they may have been justified,” he said.More: Security Guard Brawl With Wheelchair Bound Student Caught On CameraAhmed also suggested that the student doesn’t always need the wheelchair.“We have information that the student wasn’t 100 percent wheelchair bound,” he said.Mitchell was forced to forfeit his security guard’s license at least until the case is decided.

Security Company Operated With No License
May 16 2014
CHARLOTTE, N.C. –
A man who was providing security for several restaurants in the Charlotte area is now facing charges after state agents discovered he didn’t have a license to run a security company.
State Alcohol Law Enforcement agents said Steven Andiloro had run his business, Professional Security Solutions in Mooresville, for several years without a state license from the Private Protective Security Board.
The company had a contract with Buffalo Wild Wings when agents arrested him and five of his armed guards earlier this month and took away their guns.
“The armed security guards were not registered; the unarmed security guards were not licensed. He is facing charges in Gastonia and in Charlotte,” said Agent Jon Dudley with ALE.
Dudley said Andiloro is charged with one count of obtaining property by false pretense-a fraud charge-and a charge of operating a security company without the proper licenses.
“At ALE, we try to cut down on violence and it’s bad when the people who are trying to help you cut down the violence aren’t even registered,” Dudley said.
A spokesman for Buffalo Wild Wings said their corporate position is to hire only unarmed guards unless they are uniformed police officers. He said the regional manager who contracted with Andiloro was not aware of that policy when he signed the contract.
Andiloro has taken down his website since his arrest.

Security Guard Attacked at Mike Fox Skate Park in Santa Cruz – Police & Fire – Santa Cruz, CA Patch
Robbery suspect wounded, arrested
Passers-by helped subdue a man Saturday afternoon after he allegedly tried to rob an armored truck and was shot multiple times by one of the truck’s guards in front of the Albertsons supermarket at 55 Division Ave. in Eugene’s Santa Clara Square.
The suspect, who has not been identified, was transported to PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend in Springfield. His condition was not known.
The incident occurred about 3:40 p.m.
Some witnesses said they heard five shots fired. Others reported three.
Brian Crapser, who works as a security guard, said he had walked past the suspect in front of the Albertsons store a few minutes before the incident while on his way to Oak Grove Guns, around the corner in the same shopping center.
“I walked right by him on the way to the gun store, and he was standing by one of the pillars, and when anyone walked by he would turn and sort of hide his face,” Crapser said. “Being in the security business myself, that’s something I would notice.”
Crapser had been in the gun store only minutes when people came running in and said, “If we had guns we needed to come, there was shooting going on outside,” Crapser recalled. He immediately ran around the corner, where he saw a man on the ground.
“There was a soldier there from the recruiting office, dressed in fatigues, and he told him to put his hands up, and he did. We each held one of his arms, and he stated, ‘I’m paralyzed, I’m paralyzed,’ ” Crapser said.
“He wouldn’t give his name, and he was fading in and out,” Crapser said. “A woman came by who said she was a medic, and she checked his wounds.
“The gun store guy checked for weapons.”
Crapser’s brother-in-law, David Marshall, who also was on the scene, said the only weapons found were “a can of mace and a screwdriver.”
Eugene Police Department spokeswoman Melinda McLaughlin said she didn’t know whether the guard who fired the shots at the alleged robber had been on his way in or out of the Albertsons store. But that after the shooting he got back in the armored truck, which carried the Garda logo, and the driver pulled away from the scene and drove to a safe location and called 911.
Neither of the security guards were injured during the incident, she said.
Three hours after the shooting, a Garda truck remained parked across Division Avenue, surrounded by red safety tape.
A few items of clothing and a baseball cap with a Camping World logo remained on the pavement near the curb in front of the supermarket, which still was cordoned off with yellow “caution” tape.
The incident is under investigation by the Eugene Police Department’s Violent Crimes and Forensic Evidence units.

Byron Keith Street, 47, is charged with murdering Patrick Odoikyene, 47, who was found shot to death at 2:48 a.m. last Dec. 30 outside the upscale Shores apartment complex in the 4200 block of Via Marina.
The murder charge includes the special circumstance allegation that Odoikyene was murdered during the course of a burglary, along with an allegation that Street personally and intentionally discharged a handgun during the crime.
Street had been suspended by Odoikyene, his immediate supervisor, for bringing his girlfriend to work, according to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
Street and his girlfriend, Ann Una Bailey, 23, of Inglewood, were charged Jan. 3 with five counts of theft and one count of false personation. Street was also charged with one count of counterfeit seal.
Street has since been charged with one count each of murder, first- degree residential burglary and ex-felon in possession of a firearm, along with three counts of vandalism with more than $400 damage.
He is due back at the Airport Branch Courthouse in Los Angeles April 15, when a date is scheduled to be set for a hearing to determine if there is enough evidence to require him to stand trial.
