CRIME PREVENTION TIP-PREVENT AUTO BURGLARY AND THEFT-Summer months provide an environment for thieves that leads to an increase in auto related burglary and theft. The following information could help keep you and your vehicle safe.

Tips to Protect Your Vehicle

  • Take Your Keys.
  • Lock Your Car. Almost half of all vehicles stolen were left unlocked.
  • Don't Hide a Second Set of Keys in Your Car. Extra keys can easily be found if a thief takes time to look.
  • Park in Well-Lighted Areas.
  • Park in areas that have frequent passerbys. Auto thieves/burglars do not like witnesses and prefer unoccupied and dark areas.
  • Don't leave your car running unattended. Vehicles are commonly stolen at convenience stores, gas stations, ATM's, etc. Many vehicles are also stolen on cold mornings when the owner leaves the vehicle running to warm up.
  • Completely Close Car Windows When Parking. Don't make it any easier for the thief to enter your vehicle.
  • Hide Your Valuables. Don't make your car a more desirable target for thieves by leaving valuables in plain sight.
