Preventing Vehicle Theft
The Central Dispatch Office is offering the following tips to help keep your belongings and automobile safe:
​• Always lock your automobile and take your keys.
​​• Make sure all windows are rolled up – all the way.
​​• Do not leave extra or spare keys in your automobile.
​​• Do not leave valuables in your automobile (whether in plain sight or hidden).
​​• Do not leave valuables in your trunk (if your automobile is unlocked, a thief can get to your trunk). ​
​• Park your automobile in a lit area.
​​• Park your automobile in your garage or driveway if possible. ​
​• Never leave your automobile running.
​​• Install an anti-theft device that is highly visible, hard to defeat, and renders the automobile inoperable. ​
• Do not leave important papers, especially a car title, in your automobile.
​​• Invest in a tracking device in case your vehicle is stolen. ​
​• Record the serial numbers of aftermarket stereos, or other items.
​​• Engrave your driver’s license number on your stereos, speakers, and cellular phones. ​
​• Do not leave your garage door opener in plain sight in your automobile.
​​• Consider a security camera on your property. ​
​• Report suspicious activity or persons via 911 immediately.
