What you can do to protect your home and family from today's criminals
Always lock the doors of your house, even when you are home. If your door does not have a window to see who is knocking, install a peephole, to see who is there before opening your door. If you do not know who is knocking, do not open the door to them, but speak to them through the door without unlocking it. Ask for proper identification from delivery persons or strangers. Don't let strangers in to use your phone. If you arrive at home and suspect a stranger may in inside, DON'T GO IN! Leave quietly and quickly and call 911 immediately! Keep a list of serial number of all of your valuables, in the event of a robbery or an insurance claim. Take photographs of valuables for your records as well and if possible, mark them with your name or some sort of identifying mark. Valuable jewelry is best photographed on a plain black background with a ruler next to the item. Lock your automobile no matter where you park, even in your own driveway. Don't leave valuables, such as cell phones, iPods, wallets or cash in your car. If you must leave valuables in your car for some reason, make sure to place them in the trunk or under a seat where they cannot be seen through the windows. |
