Tip of the Week

DON'T FILL YOUR VEHICLE WITH PRESENTS FOR THIEVES!

It only takes a few seconds for thieves to break into your vehicle and steal your valuables.
It only takes a few seconds to remove your valuables and secure your vehicle.
Don't Be a Victim!
Auto-burglary prevention starts by limiting the criminal's opportunity to commit the crime and can be accomplished with very little time and effort.  Criminals are looking for something to steal - don't supply the valuables.  Leaving your valuables in your vehicle instantly makes your car a target for thieves.
