BURGLARY PREVENTION TIPS

Notice from Ofc. Alisha Helphenstine #3872
Woodlawn Precinct:

Please keep an eye on vacant homes in your neighborhood. The Woodlawn and Randallstown areas are having unknown suspects remove copper piping from these locations.

​

If you see any suspicious subjects, vehicles or work vehicles at these locations, call 911. We can determine if these subjects are legitimate workers or not.

Try to get a good description of the subjects along with vehicle descriptions and tag numbers to give our 911 dispatchers.

 

PLEASE DO NOT GET INVOLVED. JUST BE A GOOD WITNESS. YOU CAN REMAIN ANONYMOUS.

IT IS ILLEGAL TO ENTER A VACANT HOUSE OR AN APARTMENT FOR ANY REASON IF IT’S NOT YOUR LEGAL RESIDENCE.
