Keep Your Valuables Secure

The last few months the Police Department has taken multiple reports of thefts from vehicles. Missing items have included cash, credit/debit cards and handguns.

Tips to prevent these thefts include:

• Remove valuables from vehicles.
• Lock your vehicle.
• Close/Lock your garage doors.
• Turn on exterior lights.
• Report any suspicious activity in your neighborhood as soon as possible.

In addition, the Police Department encourages residents with outdoor camera/surveillance systems to register those with our Community Camera Program via the City of Washington website: https://washingtoniowa.gov/washington-community-camera-program-registration/
