Warm Weather Reminder
As we start to settle into spring after a long winter, things start to change around Spokane. One of those changes that affects us the most is the criminal element in the area starts to rise. The cold no longer keeps them inside and those looking to commit crime are using the warmer weather to be out and about when there are fewer people out, usually in the middle of the night.
Spokane has seen a huge rise in vehicle prowling and thefts and the Logan Neighborhood is not immune to that.
Please remember:
- Lock everything, including residence doors and windows and vehicle doors. If you leave your vehicle unlocked, someone will go through it looking for items to take from you.
- Keep items of value out of sight. The $200 Oakley sunglasses are very attractive to a thief, but so are gym bags sitting in the back seat and the empty department store bag that was left over from the last shopping trip.
- If you are the victim of a crime, please report it. By not doing so, we are unable to track or ad patrols to deter such thefts in the future. Call Crime check at 456-2233, and Campus Security at 313-2222.
Have a safe and successful spring from Campus Public safety and Security.
