Police Remind Residents – Lock It Or Lose It
Police are using this opportunity to remind residents to “Lock it or Lose It.”
Cars and homes should always be locked. Residents should take care to secure any entry points to their home, including windows and garage and patio doors.
No items of value should ever be left in your vehicle. Belongings such as keys, purses, wallets and phones should be taken inside.
Police recommend doing a regular nightly check to ensure that you haven’t forgotten to secure your home and car before going to bed.
It’s also recommended to keep a couple lights on to create the illusion of being home if you’re not, and draw the curtains or shades to prevent viewing from the street.
