Home Safety Tips

Just a few home safety tips--real simple but effective.

  1. When you leave your home each day be sure to check all doors and windows and see that they are locked. The majority of the latest burglaries were committed by opportunists finding windows unlocked and slightly open. The crooks were able to remove or cut screen and raise the windows permitting entry. EASY--NOISELESS
  2. Keep a car in the driveway if you have a second car that isn't being driven. This give the appearance that someone is home.
  3. Keep hedges and trees trimmed, particularly those that are in front of first floor windows and doors.
  4. Purchase strong locks for windows and doors.
  5. Develop good relations with your neighbors and keep in contact reporting any suspicious persons or vehicles.


If you observe a crime in progress, STAY CALM, BE AN EFFICIENT OBSERVER. Many times, victims AND witnesses become so emotionally overcome with fear or anger they can't give an accurate description of the incident or the perpetrators or they may completely forget what happened.

DO NOT confront the criminal. rather stay out of sight and call police immediately. You may be asked to give directions and give a play by play of the activity so officers can zero right in on the act. Stay out of sight, stay in contact and let the police surprise them!!

Remember, you can be an important link in the investigation and in the closure of a case. Use you best powers of observation.
