Tips for keeping your residential property safe:

 • Keep your doors and windows locked at all times—even when you are home.
• Do not rely on screens for security.
• Call 911 if you see anything suspicious.
• Talk to your neighbors about this community bulletin and ask them to be alert to suspicious
activity. We need everyone’s help.
• If you are a victim of burglary, report it immediately by calling 911. Try to remember as much
suspect information as you can when you are talking to 911. Inform the responding officers if
you see something that may have been handled or left behind by the suspect (cigarette butt,
pop can, etc.).
