Message from
POLICE CHIEF KEN TRUVER
December 1, 2009
As 2009 comes to a close and the Holiday Season approaches, the Castle
Shannon Police Department acknowledges the support of the residents,
business owners and Borough Officials. A common and repeated theme of our
communication outreach is that the police department cannot operate
efficiently without assistance from the people we serve. The input,
suggestions, comments and points of interest/concerns from the community
are welcomed and appreciated.
The monthly message would be lacking if we didn't point out additions to
the website. This month we have added "Important Links" to the far right
bottom of our main page. Please visit this "link" and review the
descriptions of various resource information we have provided by way of
easy access.
In keeping with our message of safety and security, we offer the following
Holiday Crime Prevention Tips:
- Always be vigilant about locking doors and windows when leaving your
home.
- Don't advertise long absences from your home. Have neighbors
retrieve
mail and newspapers and set light timers to give the appearance of home
occupancy.
- If you go out for the evening, leave a radio or television on so it
sounds like someone is home.
- On trash day, do not advertise recently acquired expensive items by
placing the containers in plain view at the curb.
- "Buddy up" with trusted neighbors to keep watch of each other's home
throughout the season.
- When shopping, keep alert to your surroundings.
- Never leave your purse/wallet unattended in a shopping cart or in
your
vehicle.
- Park in well lit areas and shop before dark whenever possible.
- Lock your packages, gifts and valuables in your trunk to prevent
crimes
of opportunity.
- As with any holiday, law enforcement efforts for highway safety will
be increased for your safety.
Please always wear safety belts and
NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE.
Best wishes for a Happy, Healthy and Safe Holiday Season!
