Business Owner Protects His Property Using Byrna Less-Lethal Defense

Business owners face real security risks — especially after hours when properties are empty and response times can be unpredictable. Break-ins often happen fast, leaving little time to react or wait for help.

In a recent incident, a business owner was able to stop an attempted break-in using a Byrna less-lethal launcher, protecting his property without resorting to deadly force.


An Attempted Break-In After Hours

The incident occurred outside normal business hours when suspicious activity was detected near the property. As the situation escalated, it became clear the business was being targeted for a break-in.

Instead of confronting the intruder at close range or using a firearm, the owner deployed a Byrna launcher, creating distance and stopping the threat. The suspect fled, and the property remained secure — with no serious injuries and no loss of life.


Why Businesses Are Common Targets

Commercial properties are frequently targeted because:

  • They are unoccupied at night
  • Valuable equipment or merchandise is inside
  • Criminals expect limited resistance
  • Police response may take time

While alarms and cameras are important, they don’t always stop a threat once it’s already happening.


How Byrna Helps Business Owners Defend Responsibly

A Byrna less-lethal launcher gives business owners a critical advantage: distance and control.

Byrna allows users to:

  • Deter intruders from a safe distance
  • Stop aggressive behavior without lethal force
  • Avoid close-quarters confrontation
  • Reduce legal and liability risks

In commercial environments, having a defense option that allows proportional response is essential.


Less-Lethal Defense Makes Sense for Businesses

Firearms can introduce serious legal, safety, and liability concerns — especially in urban or mixed-use commercial areas. Many business owners want effective protection without risking irreversible consequences.

Byrna provides a responsible alternative:

  • Effective stopping power
  • Non-lethal response
  • Safer for commercial areas
  • Legal to own with no permit or background check

For business owners, Byrna bridges the gap between passive security measures and lethal force.


Preparedness Protects More Than Property

Protecting a business isn’t just about inventory — it’s about protecting employees, customers, and livelihoods. Responsible preparedness helps prevent situations from escalating into tragedy.

Having the right tools makes all the difference.
