The Madera Police Department encourages residents to take the following precautions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Always lock your vehicle, even when parked at your residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Remove valuables, including purses, wallets, backpacks, electronics, cash, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 When away from home, secure valuable items out of sight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Report suspicious persons or activity immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Never leave vehicle keys, key fobs, or garage door openers inside your vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Park in well-lit, highly visible locations whenever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u2022 Consider surveillance cameras to help deter criminal activity and assist investigators when crimes occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
