RFCOP Crime Update Week of August 27th - September 2nd

A word from the RFCOP:

School is back in session and before you know it the holidays will be upon us.  So many things to do have been added to our daily routine making us wonder how we will keep ahead of all the needed chores and obligations.  The past two weeks show an increase in our local or not so local criminals taking advantage of the situation.  Please do NOT give them added assistance!!  Lock your doors and windows when going out, even if only for a quick trip to the store, to pick up the kids, to walk down your street/alley to visit a neighbor. Lock those garages, car doors, and sheds. 

Do you realize the little time that it takes you to lock up and secure is a fraction of what you would have to go through when your house is robbed, your shed pilfered, your car riffled through or worse stolen?  Let us work together to continue to discourage crime in the Forge.  Rob Williams has worked long and hard compiling statistics for 2011 and working on 2012.  They will be available in the very near future.

Crime has decreased dramatically over the past three years, mostly due to the vigilance of you, a member of the community, doing your part.  Let us work together to continue the downward swing of crime in our community.  Remember our motto, “Lights on, Lock Up, Look out”.  It takes a neighborhood working together to keep it safe.  Thank you ALL for your continued vigilance.
