Abstract
Provided herein is a personal security device in the form of a wrist band, which is intended to be worn about a limb of a wearer, such as a wrist. A device according to the invention is adapted to be secured in locked fashion about its wearer, and includes an alarm means which may be activated by the user at any desired time, to emit a high intensity audible alarm for a pre-determined amount of time to attract attention of other persons in the immediate vicinity for cases where the wearer perceives they are being approached by a would-be offender or attacker. According to a preferred embodiment, a radio frequency transmission is commenced simultaneously with the sounding of the audible alarm, in order to enable a second person who is possessed of a unit capable of receiving the transmitted signal to track and locate the person wearing the device of the invention.
