The SMPD reminds residents to:

  • Close and lock doors and windows
  • Use house and vehicle alarms, if available
  • Alarm company signs and stickers can often deter crime
  • When out of town, consider turning on a radio loud enough for a suspect who might come to your door or window to hear and hopefully believe someone is home (but, be careful not to disturb your neighbors and beware of any fire hazards a radio left on for long periods of time could cause.)
  • Report any suspicious activity

The SMPD offers vacation checks while you are away. Call the station at (626) 355-1414 for more information.
