PREAMBLE


	The Schedule 13D, dated July 27, 1992, filed by Fidelity 
International Limited ("FIL") with respect to the Common Stock, $0.00 
par value per share (the "Shares") of Pinkerton's Inc., is hereby 
amended as set forth below.  The Shares to which it relates are owned by 
Fidelity International Limited, through its subsidiaries and affiliates.

Item 1.	Security and Issuer.

	This statement relates to shares of the Common Stock, $0.00 value 
(the "Shares") of Pinkerton's, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the 
"Company").  The principal executive offices of the Company are located 
at 6727 Odessa Avenue, Van Nuys, California 91406.

Item 2.	Identity and Background.

	Item 2 is amended as follows:

	This statement is being filed by Fidelity International Limited, a 
Bermuda joint stock company incorporated for an unlimited duration by 
private act of the Bermuda legislature ("FIL").  A separate Schedule 13D 
is being filed by FMR Corp., a Massachusetts Corporation ("FMR"), with 
respect to the Shares.  FIL is an investment adviser which provides 
investment advisory and management services to a number of non-U.S. 
investment companies or instrument trusts (the "International Funds") 
and certain institutional investors.  The principal office of FIL is 
located at Pembroke Hall, 42 Crow Lane, Hamilton, Bermuda.

	FMR is a holding company one of whose principal assets is the 
capital stock of a wholly-owned subsidiary, Fidelity Management & 
Research Company ("Fidelity"), which is also a Massachusetts 
corporation.  Fidelity is an investment adviser which is registered 
under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and which 
provides investment advisory services to more than 30 investment 
companies which are registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company 
Act of 1940 and serves as investment adviser to certain other funds 
which are generally offered to limited groups of investors (the 
"Fidelity Funds").  Fidelity Management Trust Company ("FMTC"), a 
wholly-owned subsidiary of FMR Corp. and a bank as defined in Section 
3(a)(6) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, serves as trustee or 
managing agent for various private investment accounts, primarily 
employee benefit plans and serves as investment adviser to certain other 
funds which are generally offered to limited groups of investors (the 
"Accounts").  Various directly or indirectly held subsidiaries of FMR 
are also engaged in investment management, venture capital asset 
management, securities brokerage, transfer and shareholder servicing and 
real estate development.  The principal offices of FMR, Fidelity, and 
FMTC are located at 82 Devonshire Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02109.

	Prior to June 30, 1980, FIL was a majority-owned subsidiary of 
Fidelity.  On that date, the shares of FIL held by Fidelity were 
distributed as a dividend, to the shareholders of FMR.  FIL currently 
operates as an entity independent of FMR and Fidelity.  The 
International Funds and FIL's other clients, with the exception of 
Fidelity and an affiliate of Fidelity, are non-U.S. entities.

	Edward C. Johnson 3d owns 34.0% of the outstanding voting common 
stock of FMR.  In addition, a partnership controlled by Mr. Johnson and 
members of his family own shares of FIL voting stock with the right to 
cast approximately 47.22% of the total votes which may be cast by all 
holders of FIL voting stock.  Mr. Johnson 3d is Chairman of FMR Corp. 
and FIL.  FMR Corp. and FIL are separate and independent corporate 
entities.  FMR Corp. and FIL are managed independently and their boards 
of Directors are generally composed of different individuals.  Their 
investment decisions are made independently, and clients are different 
organizations.  The business address and principal occupation of Mr. 
Johnson 3d is set forth in Schedule A hereto.

	Effective July 1, 1993, Fidelity became sub-advisor to American 
Values IV (Bermuda) Ltd. ("AVIV"), Fidelity American Special Situations 
Trust ("FASST"), and Domestic Values Fund (the "FMR Account").

	AVIV is a closed end investment company established under the 
Companies Act, 1981 of Bermuda, as amended.  Its principal office is at 
Pembroke Hall, 42 Crow Lane, Hamilton, Bermuda.  The investment manager 
of AVIV is FIL.  The FMR Account is maintained by FMR.  FASST is a unit 
trust established and authorized by the Department of Trade and Industry 
under the laws of England.  The investment advisor of FASST is Fidelity 
Investment Services Limited, an English company and a subsidiary of FIL.

	The Shares to which this statement relates are owned directly by 
five of the Fidelity Funds, fourteen Accounts, the account of FMR, AVIV, 
FASST, by Fidelity International Limited, through its subsidiaries and 
affiliates, and by accounts of Edward C. Johnson 3d or his family 
members.

	FMR and FIL are of the view that they are not acting as a "group" 
for purposes of Section 13(d) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 
(the "1934 Act") and that they are not otherwise required to attribute 
to each other the "beneficial ownership" of securities "beneficially 
owned" by the other corporation within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 
promulgated under the 1934 Act.  Therefore, they are of the view that 
the Shares held by the other corporations need not be aggregated for 
purposes of Section 13(d).  However, FMR is making this filing on a 
voluntary basis as if all of the Shares are beneficially owned by FMR 
and FIL on a joint basis.

	The name, residence or business address, principal occupation or 
employment and citizenship of each of the executive officers and 
directors of FMR are set forth in Schedule A hereto.

	Within the past five years, none of the persons named in this Item 
2 or listed on Schedule A has been convicted in any criminal proceeding 
(excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or has been a 
party to any civil proceeding and as a result thereof was or is subject 
to any judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, 
or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to , federal or state 
securities laws or finding any violations with respect to such laws.

Item 3.	Source and Amount of Funds or Other Considerations.

	Item 3 is amended as follows:

	AVIV which own or owned Shares purchased in the aggregate 27,108 
Shares for cash in the amount of approximately $409,937, including 
brokerage commissions.  AVIV used its own assets in making such purchase 
and no part of the purchase price is represented by borrowed funds.  
Proceeds from 27,108 Shares sold aggregated approximately $427,810.  The 
attached Schedule B sets forth Shares purchased and/or sold since May 5, 
1994.

	FASST which own or owned Shares purchased in the aggregate 35,000 
Shares for cash in the amount of approximately $804,600, including 
brokerage commissions.  FASST used its own assets in making such 
purchase and no part of the purchase price is represented by borrowed 
funds.  Proceeds from 35,000 Shares sold aggregated approximately 
$780,875.

	The FMR Account which own or owned Shares purchased in the 
aggregate 6,892 Shares for cash in the amount of approximately $104,238, 
including brokerage commissions.  The FMR Account used its own assets in 
making such purchase and no part of the purchase price is represented by 
borrowed funds.  Proceeds from 6,892 Shares sold aggregated 
approximately $108,078.

	The Fidelity Funds which own or owned Shares purchased in the 
aggregate 789,500 Shares for cash in the amount of approximately 
$15,200,180, including brokerage commissions.  The Fidelity Funds used 
their own assets in making such purchase and no part of the purchase

sold aggregated approximately $2,544,999.

	The Accounts of FMTC which own or owned Shares purchased in the 
aggregate 9,600 Shares for cash in the amount of approximately $173,387, 
including brokerage commissions.  The Accounts used their own assets in 
making such purchase and no part of the purchase price is represented by 
borrowed funds.

	Accounts of Edward C. Johnson 3d or his family members which own 
or owned Shares purchased in the aggregate 43,900 Shares for cash in the 
amount of approximately $1,609,042, including brokerage commissions.  
Edward C. Johnson 3d used his own assets in making such purchase and no 
part of the purchase price is represented by borrowed funds.  Proceeds 
from 17,400 Shares sold aggregated approximately $546,325.

Item 4.	Purpose of Transaction.

	The purpose of FIL or its subsidiaries in having the International 
Funds and accounts purchase shares (see Item 5 below) is to acquire an 
equity interest in the Company in pursuit of specified investment 
objectives established by the Board of Directors of the International 
Funds.

	FIL or its subsidiaries may continue to have the International 
Funds and accounts purchase shares subject to a number of factors, 
including, among others, the availability of shares for sale at what FIL 
or its subsidiaries considers to be reasonable prices and other 
investment opportunities that may be available to the International 
Funds and accounts.

	FIL and its subsidiaries intend to review continuously the equity 
position of the International Funds and accounts in the Company.  
Depending upon future evaluations of the business prospects of the 
Company and upon other developments, including, but not limited to, 
general economic and business conditions and money market and stock 
market conditions, FIL and its subsidiaries may determine to cause the 
International Funds to cease making additional purchases of shares or to 
increase or decrease the equity interest in the Company by acquiring 
additional Shares, or by disposing of all or a portion of the Shares.

	FIL and its subsidiaries have no present plan or proposal which 
relates to or would result in (i) an extraordinary corporate 
transaction, such as a merger, reorganization, liquidation, or sale or 
transfer of a material amount of assets involving the Company or any of 
its subsidiaries, (ii) any change in the Company's present Board of 
Directors or management, (iii) any material changes in the Company's 
present capitalization or dividend policy or any other material change 
in the Company's business or corporate structure, (iv) any change in the 
Company's charter or by-laws, or (v) the Company's common stock becoming 
eligible for termination of its registration pursuant to Section 
12(g)(4) of the 1934 Act.

Item 5.	Interest in Securities of Issuer.

	Item 5 is amended as follows:

	Although Item 5 assumes that FMR, Fidelity, and FIL beneficially 
own all 700,600 Shares, reference is made to Item 2 for a disclaimer of 
beneficial ownership with respect to the securities which are 
"beneficially owned" by the other corporations.

	(a)	FIL beneficially owns, as investment adviser or the parent 
of the investment adviser to the International Funds and accounts, zero 
Shares, or approximately 0.00% of the outstanding Shares of the Company. 
FMR beneficially owns, through its own account ("FMR Account") zero 
Shares, or approximately 0.00% of the outstanding Shares of the Company, 
and through Fidelity, as investment adviser to the Fidelity Funds, 
664,500 Shares, or approximately 8.05% of the outstanding Shares of the 
Company, and through FMTC, the managing agent for the Accounts, 9,600 
Shares, or approximately 0.12% of the outstanding Shares of the Company. 
Edward C. Johnson 3d owns, in accounts for his benefit or the benefit of 
an Edward C. Johnson 3d family member, 26,500 Shares or approximately 
0.32% of the outstanding Shares of the Company. Neither FMR, Fidelity, 
FMTC, Edward C. Johnson 3d, nor any of its affiliates nor, to the best 
knowledge of FMR, any of the persons name in Schedule A hereto, 
beneficially owns any other Shares.  The combined holdings of FMR, 
Fidelity, FMTC, AVIV, the FMR Account, FASST, Edward C. Johnson 3d, and 
FIL are 700,600 Shares, or approximately 8.49% of the outstanding Shares 
of the Company.

	(b)	The International Funds, the International Pension Accounts 
and FIL, as investment adviser to the International Funds and 
International Pension Accounts, each has the sole power to vote and the 
sole power to dispose of the zero Shares held by the International Funds 
and the International Pension Accounts.  FIL has the sole power to vote 
and the sole power to dispose of zero shares.  FIL, FMR Corp., through 
its control of Fidelity, and AVIV each has sole power to dispose of the

and AVIV each has sole power to vote and to dispose of the zero Shares
