DON’T BE THE VICTIM OF A PETTY THEFT
Petty thefts happen almost on a daily basis, and for the most part, they can be avoided. Please follow these few safety tips to help insure you do not become a victim of petty theft.
As a reminder, please keep your purse attached to your cart with a clip. Do not let the suspect walk by and grab your purse without any resistance. Use a safety clip and attach the purse to the cart underneath your purse. A small carabiner will provide extra security to you and help keep your purse safe.
As always, please feel free to call me or email me.
Thanks,
Deputy Brian Heischuber
