Here are some safety tips from your Community Policing Officer. ( Officer Brian Whitsitt )
-
Stay alert to your surroundings and those around you.
-
If you must carry a purse, keep it close to your body not dangling by the straps or in a cart. Put a wallet in an inside coat or front pants pocket.
-
Avoid carrying large amounts of cash and only carry the credit cards that you need.
-
Shop with a friend; there is safety in numbers.
-
Don't overburden yourself with too many packages.
-
Don't leave packages or valuables visible inside of your car. Preferably secure items in the trunk of your car.
-
Have your keys in your hands before leaving the store.
-
When returning to your car, scan the interior of your car before getting inside.
-
Don't electronically unlock your car until you are within door opening distance.
-
Teach your children about what to do if they are lost or separated from you,. i.e., go to the store clerk, security person or officer
