Remove your keys from your vehicle – Lock-up your vehicles and home – Put on exterior lights
The members of the Larchmont Police Detective Division diligently analyze prevailing crime trends in an effort to deter future crime. This analysis has shown that the crimes which occur most frequently in our community are crimes involving theft of property, specifically theft of or theft from within vehicles.
We urge the members of our community to practice the Nightly Neighborhood Routine; remove your keys from your vehicles, lock-up your vehicles and your homes and put on exterior flood lights where possible. Taking these preventive measures makes our community safer by repelling those who attempt to steal property. This will make our neighborhoods less attractive venues for would-be wrong doers.
The month of January has seen a marked reduction in the number of these property crimes being committed within our community. This reduction can be attributed to a renewed community partnership between the Larchmont Police Department and the Larchmont Community. The members of our police department would like to thank our residents and business owners for their commitment and effort towards combating this regional crime trend. We are at our best when we work together!
