POLICE TIPS

A scream heard anywhere may mean robbery or rape. Be observant and

notify police.

Anyone removing accessories, license plates or gasoline from a car

should be reported.

Anyone peering into parked cars may be looking for a car to steal or

for valuables left displayed in the car.

People entering or leaving a business after hours could be burglars.

Safely try to note any vehicles involved and call police.

The sound of breaking glass or other loud explosive noises could mean

an accident, burglary or vandalizing.

People loitering around schools, parks, secluded areas or in the

neighborhood could be sex offenders.

Nearly half of the burglaries committed are without force, that is,

through unlocked doors and windows.

Always lock your doors and windows even when leaving for just a minute

or when working in your own backyard.
