Clinton Police Chief Offers Holiday Shopping Tips

Whether that holiday shopping has been finished up or you still have errands to run, safety during the hustle and bustle of the busiest shopping season of the year is paramount.

 

Clinton Police Chief Ben Lowers on the WHOW Morning Show Wednesday says to use common sense when shopping and if possible, try to shop during the daylight hours.

 

 

With so many valuables new to your home, the Chief encourages keeping your homes locked, and as those gifts get unwrapped, conceal the boxes when they go to the trash can to not draw attention to the items that are in your home.

 

 

Much like vehicle burglaries, which in recent years are plaguing communities like Clinton, these are crimes of opportunity and these individuals are seeking anything they can trade for a dollar.

 

 

Chief Lowers says some of these tips may seem elementary but it is necessary to prevent becoming a victim.
