Our local teams have increased patrols in these areas, but we are asking the community to stay vigilant. Here is a few quick checks you can do.

Quick Security Tips:

Double-Check the Click: Always verify your car is locked before walking away.

Key Security:

If you have a keyless entry vehicle, consider using a signal-blocking Faraday pouch to store your keys at night. 

Keep it Clear:

Avoid leaving bags, electronics, or loose change in plain sight, as these can attract unwanted attention.

Lighting: 

If you have a driveway, keeping it well-lit can be a great natural deterrent.
