Lock It Up: Protect Your Valuables

Post Date:08/20/2020 10:49 AM
Multiple burglaries to motor vehicles and stolen vehicles have recently been reported across McHenry County. Often times, these are crimes of opportunity when vehicles are left unlocked (sometimes with keys in them). Follow these safety measures to prevent opportunities for criminals: 
Lock It or Lose It
  • Lock your vehicles at all times.
  • Remove valuables and electronics or store them out of sight, such as in the trunk.
  • Park in a well-lit location.
  • If you park in a garage, lock all entry doors and windows to the garage.
  • Remove garage door openers from your vehicle that can be used to gain access to your home.
If you see any suspicious activity, dial 9-1-1 to report suspicious noises, people, or cars to the Lake in the Hills Police Department.
