Sometimes this may also mean an increase in thefts such

as auto burglaries, retail theft and personal theft. I will
be spending time in Union Square this year primarily on
duty working to make sure our visitors are safe. Of
course, I will be Christmas shopping off duty as well.

Just this afternoon, a woman was on the 100 block of Powell Street, in the middle
of the day and with people on the street, when her cell phone was grabbed out of
her hand.
Today I was reflecting on the plans for Halloween this

weekend. As we know, once we get through Halloween,
the Holiday Season has arrived and this means
wonderful events, generous giving and a beautiful
scenery in the Central District.
Captain David Lazar

Commanding Officer Central Station
A couple of things to consider to reduce these crimes:

1. Be aware of your surroundings at all times
Special points of interest:
JOIN SFPD
2. Do not use or display your electronic devices while in public (I often see people
walking around with their cell phone in their hand).
3. Place your wallet in your front pocket and be aware of your valuables on the
street.
4. Zip up and secure your purse and personal belongings. Keep your valuables in
front of you.
5. If you are bumped into, immediately check to make sure you still have your
wallet and valuables. Many times, this could be a person attempting to take
valuables out of your pocket.
6. Call 911 if you witness a theft.
Have a wonderful Halloween this weekend. Tomorrow, I will spend time with Dr.
Dennis Chew and the children from Gordon J. Lau Elementary school as they
perform their Halloween parade.
