Remember to Lock It or Lose It to keep your home and vehicle secure.
In the past two weeks, Issaquah police received several reports of vehicle prowls — a majority caused by people leaving valuables in their unlocked vehicles.
Police remind residents that if you don't lock your home or vehicle, you’re making it a potential target.
A few simple steps can help keep yourself and your valuable safe:
- Keep doors and windows locked when you’re asleep or away from your home. Remember: Screens do not secure windows; only locking secures windows.
- Always lock unattended vehicles.
- Do not leave valuables in an unattended vehicle.
- If that's not possible, lock the materials in the trunk of the car, or place them out of clear view.
