NEIGHBORHOOD ALERT

Since April of 2006, numerous municipalities throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania have experienced an increase in residential burglaries wherein occupied homes have been burglarized between Midnight and 4:00 AM. Lower Gwynedd Township has been targeted in various neighborhoods in the Township during this time period.
In most cases, entry is gained via unlocked doors or windows in the rear of the property. Entry has also been gained by entering the home through the garage after using a garage door opener found in an unlocked vehicle parked in the driveway. The thieve(s) have stayed on the first floor and have usually remained in the area of the kitchen or dining room searching for wallets, pocketbooks or small electronic devices (digital cameras, laptops, etc). The suspect(s) have not attempted to enter the second floor of the home.

You can help to increase the security of your home and family by following these suggestions:

Always lock all doors and windows, even while at home.

Alarms – Keep your alarm system armed, even while at home. If your alarm activates during the night, especially from a ground floor location, secure your family members on the second floor and call 9-1-1. Provide the responding officers with any information you may have available regarding the location of the alarm or any person, vehicles or other activity that you may observe outside of your house.

Vehicles – Always lock all door and windows. Place garage door openers in a safe compartment.

Keys – Don’t leave spare keys “hidden” outside of your home. Thieves look around entranceways for hiding spots. Also, don’t leave spare keys in plain view in the kitchen or areas near a doorway.

Pocketbooks/Wallets/Valuables – Do not leave any of these items in plain view on the first floor. Inventory all valuables. Keep a list of serial numbers and descriptions of electronic devices. Photograph jewelry and other valuables.

REPORT ALL SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITIES, PERSONS AND VEHICLES TO THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY BY CALLING 9-1-1.
