Tips of the Week:

The Rockville City Police Department would like to provide residents with a few Summer Crime Prevention Tips:

Bicycle/Lawnmower Theft Prevention Tips

• Always lock your bicycle to a stationary object. The best device to use is a hardened steel U-Shaped lock. (Chains, locks, and cables can be easily cut or broken.)
• Make sure both wheels are locked and remove any accessories that can be easily taken.
• Keep the mower in a locked garage or shed. Remove the key from riding lawnmowers.
• Record makes, models, serial numbers and descriptions and keep this information in a safe place.

Yard Security

• If you are working in the yard, make sure your home’s front, rear, and side doors, as well as the garage doors are closed and locked.
• Don’t keep ladders or other equipment in the yard that could be used in gain access to your home.
• Keep shrubs, bushes, and hedges maintained.
• Residential lighting should be used to light up the home entry points. Motion detector lights are an inexpensive deterrent for areas where continuous lighting is unnecessary.

Home Security

• Do not advertise your vacation plans. Have a trusted neighbor, friend or relative stop by to check on your house while you are away. Stop your mail and paper deliveries.
• Set timers and place in rooms that you would normally use when you are home to simulate that someone is there during your absence.
