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 of a first plurality of communication devices, the notification indicating an armed intruder within a first stationary geofence;
determining whether one or more law enforcement officer (LEO) communication devices are within a second stationary geofence different than the first stationary geofence; and
in response to the notification, sending an emergency alert to the one or more LEO communication devices determined to be within the second stationary geofence.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method executed by one or more computer servers includes receiving a notification from a communication device, determining whether one or more other communication devices are within a stationary geofence, and in response to the notification, sending an emergency alert to the other communication devices determined to be within the stationary geofence. The computer-implemented method may further include receiving an acknowledgement of the emergency alert from at least one of the other communication devices determined to be within the stationary geofence and/or sending data indicating an approximate location of the communication device and an associated tolerance of the approximate location. Other example computer-implemented methods, communication devices including software applications, and systems are also disclosed.

- 25. An LEO communication device comprising memory, one or more processors, a user interface, and a software application stored in the memory for execution by the one or more processors, the software application configured to receive an emergency alert indicating an armed intruder within a first stationary geofence if the LEO communication devices is located within a second stationary geofence different than the first stationary geofence, receive user input acknowledging the emergency alert and identifying whether the acknowledging LEO is in uniform, and send the received user input acknowledging the emergency alert and identifying whether the acknowledging LEO is in uniform.
