Systems and methods for notifying law enforcement officers of armed intruder situations#
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method executed by one or more computer servers, the method comprising:
- receiving a notification from a first communication device, the notification indicating an armed intruder within a first stationary geofence, said notification made in response to input from a first user; and
determining whether said first communication device is within said first stationary geofence;
wherein the notification is ignored if the first communication device is determined to be outside the first stationary geofence; and
wherein the following additional steps are performed only if the first communication device is determined to be within the first stationary geofence;
automatically determining whether one or more of a second plurality of communication devices are within a second stationary geofence different than the first stationary geofence;
in response to the notification, automatically providing an emergency alert to one or more of the second plurality of communication devices the communication device(s) determined to be within the second stationary geofence;
receiving an acknowledgement from at least one of the second plurality of communications devices in response to input from a second user; and
automatically displaying information related to the notification on the device which sent the acknowledgement as soon as such information becomes available.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method executed by one or more computer servers includes receiving a notification from a first communication device. The notification indicates an armed intruder within a first stationary geofence. The method further includes determining whether one or more of a first plurality of communication devices are within a second stationary geofence different than the first stationary geofence, and in response to the notification, providing an emergency alert to the communication device(s) determined to be within the second stationary geofence. Other example computer-implemented methods, communication devices including software applications, and systems for notifying one or more LEOs of an armed intruder by a premises personnel associated with a premises are also disclosed.
