Clocks are going forward.

Nights are getting longer.

Weather’s getting warmer.

Spring brings different opportunities for thieves. 

Maybe this is a moment to think about your home security.

Our dedicated residential burglary team, Operation Maze, continues to crack down on burglary: 24 arrests and 11 people charged this year already.

But you can help us to help you by following the CLUES.

Close and lock doors and windows in homes, garages, sheds and outhouses. If possible, use quality deadlocks. Make it hard for burglars to get in.

Leave the TV and a light on: If you are going out, make the house look occupied.

Use your burglar alarm: If you have one turn it on when you leave the house or go to bed.

Eliminate keyless vehicle theft: keep keys out of sight and in a Faraday case.

Security mark and register your property.
