Livermore PD Tip of the Month: Preventing Auto Burglary
Livermore PD Tip of the Month: Preventing Auto Burglary
As the weather warms up and our residents enjoy outdoor activities and home projects, we wanted to take a moment to remind our community how to prevent themselves from being victims of auto burglary.
LOCK IT UP
Always lock your vehicle and close the windows and sunroofs, even if you're stepping away for a moment.
HIDE VALUABLES
Keep your belongings out of sight. Stow away laptops, purses, phones, and other valuables before you park.
PARK SMART
Choose well-lit and secure parking areas, especially at night. Parking in busy, visible areas or areas with security cameras can deter potential burglars.
INSTALL SECURITY MEASURES
Consider installing an alarm system or a steering wheel lock to add an extra layer of protection.
REPORT SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY
If you see something unusual or suspicious, don't hesitate to report it to law enforcement immediately.
Let's work together to prevent auto burglaries and keep our neighborhoods secure.
