What to do if confronted by an intruder

  • Try to escape, if possible.
  • If you cannot escape, try to lock yourself in a secure room and lock the door.
  • Remain calm.
  • Co-operate with the intruder.
  • Be observant and take particular notice of any voice, dress or behavioural traits.
  • Only shout for help or scream to avoid serious assault.
  • If the intruder tries to leave, do not hinder or apprehend him.
  • Do not follow the intruder outside. Close and lock the doors immediately and call for help by activating the alarm system.
