CRIME PREVENTION TIP OF THE MONTH
By Destiny Arce, Community Service Officer/Crime Prevention
Each month, CSO Arce will provide neighbors with tips on how to keep you and your family safe from would-be criminals. The premise of community policing is based on the foundation of community participation. Thus, a critical component for a safe and crime free neighborhood is you! Because our officers cannot be on every corner all the time, we need help from the public to be responsible in observing and reporting any suspicious or criminal activity in your community.
Crime Prevention Tip: Secure Your Home Before You Travel This Summer
✅ Hold your mail or have a neighbor collect it; piled-up mail signals no one is home
✅ Use timers on lights to give the appearance of activity.
✅ Lock all doors and windows, including side gates and garage doors.
✅ Avoid posting travel plans on social media until after you return.
✅Let a trusted neighbor know you'll be gone so they can bring your trash bins in and keep an eye out for anything unusual.
A few minutes of preparation can help prevent break-ins and give you peace of mind during your trip. Surveillance cameras are pertinent to an investigation should a break-in occur
If you are interested in more details on how you can be active in your community, please contact me (Crime Prevention Officer Arce) for more information.
