Want to know the best crime prevention device ever invented? -- A good neighbor! In fact, neighbors working together in cooperation with law enforcement can make one of the best crime-fighting teams around.

Neighborhood Watch is a crime prevention program which enlists the active participation of citizens in cooperation with law enforcement to reduce crime in their communities.

Remember, law enforcement officers can't be everywhere at once -- but you and your neighbors can. Put that neighborhood "know how" to work.

	Get to know your neighbors
	Use your eyes and ears and then your telephone
	If you spot something suspicious, call the police immediately

Neighbors Should Look For...

	Someone screaming or shouting for help
	Someone looking into windows and parked cars
	Unusual noises
	Property being taken out of closed businesses or houses where no one is at home
	Cars, vans, or trucks moving slowly with no apparent destination, or without lights
	Anyone being forced into a vehicle
	A stranger sitting in a car or stopping to talk to a child
	Abandoned cars
