The community will see an increased police presence from June 22 to June 25, 2016 as officers target suspicious activity and traffic offences, conduct proactive investigations and address disorder in the area, such as graffiti mischief.
Officers will also connect with citizens during door-to-door visits in the neighbourhood, with a focus on educating the public about preventing theft from vehicles.
“CAT deployments give us the opportunity to speak with community residents face-to-face, answer questions and listen to concerns,” says Const. Mike Dahl with the EPS Community Action Team. “This week in Dunluce, we’re reminding citizens to take steps to protect their property.”
“Quick precautionary measures – always locking your vehicle, removing the keys, never leaving a car running and unattended, securing valuables out of sight – help to reduce crime in the area.”
Members of the public are invited to join the EPS for a barbecue Thursday evening. Crime prevention materials will be available from a number of EPS partners and officers will arrange a soccer game.
