Lock It Or Lose It!
Recently the Livingston Police Department has initiated the “Lock It or Lose It” campaign. The crime prevention initiative is designed to help residents remember to secure their vehicles and the personal items located within those vehicles. In addition to its announcement in the Tribune, notice of the campaign has been posted on the Livingston Police Department’s social media page, and a mobile sign board has been put out into the community to help spread the word.
Noted Captain John Drumm, “Sixteen cars have been stolen in Livingston this year; it appears all were unlocked, and it appears all had the key fobs in them. The investigations are ongoing. Our Police Department has had to spend a lot of time and effort trying to recover the autos that were stolen out of Livingston.”
