As the armed police officers entered the Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs to apprehend the gunman and rescue those trapped inside, officers in the command center were able to tap into security cameras throughout the complex and give instructions to officers inside, according to an article on The New York Times website.
Officers knew where groups of staff members and patients had taken cover, he said, and were able to judge when it was safe to rescue them.
The camera system is just one of the increasingly elaborate security measures that clinics that perform abortions have adopted.
The clinic also had a protected “safe room” and a supply of bulletproof vests.
