Threat Recognition Cues

Ok, so here's a little vignette. Look at the video (below), and see what pre-threat cues the thief displays. Sideways glances (for observers), a general attention to the area followed by a specific intention toward the victim. Feigning sleepiness. Close proximity. Shifting weight. Grooming. Any  more?

Training should include recognising these key indicators, and including them in our partner work so that our training partners get used to picking up on them by seeing them manifested prior to an incident.
