Two weeks in succession, eight burglaries occurred in Union Hospital affiliated to Fujian Medical University, causing public anger. “Stealing in the hospital is too heartless!” Mr. Chen, a citizen of Fuzhou, said that he once met a mother who took a child to see a doctor, but the wallet was stolen. “The child’s life-saving money was gone, so she squatted in the outpatient hall and cried bitterly”. Mr. Chen called for severe punishment for thieves in the hospital. Yesterday, Gulou police also forwarded the photos and videos of the suspicious man from Concord Hospital to six or seven hospitals in the jurisdiction through WeChat group, “wanted” this person. During the visit, the security personnel of several hospitals in Fuzhou introduced that they tried many methods to catch thieves, and many thieves were caught. However, the hospital had a large flow of people and theft cases still occurred from time to time. Doctors were still needed, patients remain vigilant. In the first hospital of the city, the Thief (Circle office) extended his hand to the pocket of the patient’s family while people were not paying attention. Fuzhou No. 1 Hospital: The elderly were caught and shouted “high blood pressure” The head of the security department of Fuzhou first hospital introduced that the hospital installed more than 200 probes. With the help of this “monitoring network”, they caught some thieves. At 8 o’clock on March 3, two suspicious men wandered around the hospital and were photographed by the probe, causing security guards to be alert. The security guard tracked the two people through the “monitoring network”, and then found a middle-aged man walking to pediatrics. At that time, there were five or six parents waiting for the clinic. After the nurse appeared, the parents all crowded over the queue. The man followed behind and stretched his hand to a mother’s pocket while no one noticed it. Just trying to start, being pushed away by another parent, the man slipped to another mother and then succeeded. At the same time, another elderly man also succeeded at the elevator entrance. The security guards recognized that the two men were habitual thieves and were arrested once in the hospital last year. Later, several security guards ambushed at the gate of the hospital. When the two men passed by, the security guards rushed out together and knocked them down. After being arrested, the old man shouted, “I am over 70 years old and have high blood pressure. The police didn’t turn me off last time. Why did you arrest me!” But the security guard still turned them to the police station. The person in charge of the security department said that the year before last, the security guard arrested 13 thieves and 5 thieves last year, but there were many people in the hospital, especially in open wards, and theft cases still occurred from time to time. Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital: thieves posing as family members were rounded up by security guards On last October, in the inpatient department of the Provincial Maternal and Child Health Hospital, a maternal went to the bathroom and put her wallet on the bedside. Only a few minutes later, she returned to the ward and the wallet disappeared. Later, the family remembered that a strange man in his 30 s had been wandering around, acting suspiciously. The maternal lover shouted “catch the thief”. After hearing this, the man posing as the patient’s family member pulled out the crowd to escape. Fortunately, several security guards arrived in time to block the thieves. On March this year, another thief appeared in the hospital and was recognized by the security guard in time. During the Spring Festival, the man once stole a mobile phone in the gynecological outpatient department of the hospital and was photographed by the probe. The security department will take a screenshot of the man’s photo and send it to each security guard. After the man appeared again, he was caught by the security guard as soon as he walked to the gate of the hospital. The head of the security department said that the hospital had set up more than 300 probes, covering almost 99% of the hospital area. A patrol was set up eight years ago and 80 security guards patrolled in batches. The security guard of the second provincial people’s hospital set up bait to catch thieves for half a month. “Eight months after the hospital moved, the electric car was stolen twice.” Mr. Xiao of the security department of the second provincial People’s Hospital said that at the beginning of this year, two cases of theft of electric vehicles occurred in succession at the entrance of the massage department of the hospital. In the next half month, the hospital security guard and Huada civil police began to squat. The security guards deliberately parked the electric car at the entrance of the massage department, leading the thief to the hook. Later, they specially found some abandoned cars to clean them and use them as bait. “Half a month later, the thief finally appeared.” Mr. Xiao said that at more than 11 o’clock that night, the security guard squatting nearby heard the alarm of the electric car and rushed out immediately. A 40-year-old man was burying himself in the lock and was subdued on the spot. According to the police, the man also committed the theft of the first two electric cars. From January to March last year, he committed 6 crimes and has been detained so far. Lawyer: The penalty standard for stealing in hospitals is stricter. Lawyer Yan Lei, executive director of Fujian Yiyuan law firm, introduced that in order to crack down on theft in hospitals, “two high schools” issued “explanations on several issues concerning the application of law in handling criminal theft cases” in 2013. Article 2 stipulates that if a patient or his relatives or friends steal property in a hospital, the standard of “large amount” can be determined in accordance with 50% of the prescribed standard. He introduced that if the value of theft of public and private property is less than 3,000 yuan, it can be punished by public security detention, generally not more than 20 days; If the value of theft is between 3,000 yuan and 60,000 yuan, it is “a large amount”, he can be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than 3 years, criminal detention or control; If the theft value reaches 60,000 to 300,000 yuan, it is “huge amount” and can be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 3 years; If the theft value exceeds 300,000 yuan, it is “a very large amount” and can be sentenced to more than 10 years or even life imprisonment. That is to say, if a patient or his relatives or friends steal property in the hospital, as long as the value reaches 1,500 yuan, it can be considered as “a large amount”, and the thief should bear criminal responsibility and be sentenced to imprisonment of not less than 3 years, other theft amounts and so on. In addition, lawyer Yu pointed out that if there are more than three thefts within two years, it should be identified as “multiple thefts”. In Fuzhou No. 1 Hospital, the habitual thief who claimed to be in his 70 s was caught several times in two years, and the relevant departments should be detained in accordance with the law.
