Be mindful of audio equipment – If you own a detachable stereo faceplate, consider removing it and securing it in a safe place.
Do not leave valuables in plain view – Don’t leave valuables in your car, or at the very least, do not leave them in plain view. If it can be seen, it can be stolen.
Consider using antitheft devices – Aside from locking doors and closing your windows consider purchasing an alarm system or steering wheel lock (such as “The Club”).
Park in well lit areas – Avoid parking next to large vehicles or in secluded areas.
Be a good witness – If you observe a crime in progress or suspicious activity, call the police immediately! Describe exactly what you observed with as many details as possible. Give complete descriptions such as gender, race, age, height, weight, hair color, clothing, tattoos, and scars. Try to get a license plate if a vehicle is involved.

Crime Prevention Tips
- Be mindful of audio equipment – If you own a detachable stereo faceplate, consider removing it and securing it in a safe place.
- Do not leave valuables in plain view – Don’t leave valuables in your car, or at the very least, do not leave them in plain view. If it can be seen, it can be stolen.
- Consider using anti theft devices – Aside from locking doors and closing your windows consider purchasing an alarm system or steering wheel lock (such as “The Club”).
- Park in well lit areas – Avoid parking next to large vehicles or in secluded areas.
- Be a good witness – If you observe a crime in progress or suspicious activity, call the police immediately! Describe exactly what you observed with as many details as possible. Give complete descriptions such as gender, race, age, height, weight, hair color, clothing, tattoos, and scars. Try to get a license plate if a vehicle is involved.
