That means "they're expecting someone will see them or the vehicle and will take down the licence plate number," the detective said. Del. Leileh told the group, if the vehicle was stolen, it could have been involved in another break-and- cntcr. So it is important to take down the licence plate numbers of vehicles that look like they do not belong in the area. Also, if you arc driving by such a vehicle, "get a description of it, the plate number and make note of the occupants. Count if there arc three or four heads and if they arc male or female." He suggested people 'arm' themselves themselves with binoculars -- especially those who have long driveways leading leading up to the house. "It's a worthwhile investment. You could obtain a licence plate number to assist us," lie explained. Guard Dogs For some, a guard dog is a worthwhile worthwhile investment. He says anyone with children should get a breed that is good with kids, like a German Shepherd or a Black Retriever. "And take lime to train a dog properly," he suggested. He noted that, while there haven't been many in this area of Durham Region, home invasions do occur. "If you arc home alone with kids, or elderly, you should be aware of home invasions. A dog can be a deterrent when four or five persons enter the house," Dct. Lcitcli stated. For protection, install motion detector lights around the premises and/or an alarm system Other ways people can help themselves themselves not become victims of break- and-enters arc to install motion detector lights around the premises and/or an alarm system. Also, take note of all the valuables in the house. Serial numbers for property should be written somewhere in a notebook. Dct. Lcitcli suggested that these numbers should not go in a place where valuables arc kept, but where you would put your bills. Mark Property The least one can do is to borrow the etching pencil that is available at the Claringlon Community Police Office. These can be used to effectively effectively mark property. Also, it is important to have a set of emergency phone numbers at each phone in the house, so one is not fumbling around, or having to place a directory assisted call. Other preventative tips he suggested suggested arc: deadbolts and patio door braces; a video camera system; locking locking your doors to house, barn and vehicles; intercom systems; and buying buying a 'Club' for your vehicles. He endorsed the device for locking locking steering wheels, saying: "consider "consider a Club. I've got one." He said a young offender once told him he would be able to get into a vehicle and take it out for a ride in less than 30 seconds without a Club. While "everyone lives through the possibility of being a victim" there arc strategics and precautions that can be taken to lessen the possibility, possibility, the detective said.
