Citizens should be extra vigilant about locking their homes, garages and vehicles and all entrance doors to homes and garages. Do not leave vehicles unlocked with garage door openers in them or with any valuables in plain site. Most burglaries are when vehicles, homes, garages, and businesses leave a door unlocked. These are some of the easiest crimes to prevent with a little vigilance on the part of everyone. Be watchful of activity in your neighborhood and report anything suspicious to law enforcement immediately.
