Help Keep our Island Safe

- Kelly Rodgers, Neighborhood Watch Chair

In an effort to prevent residential burglaries and other criminal activities, the Clearwater Police Department is asking you to Invest in your Neighbors. If you see suspicious activity or persons in your neighborhood, call the police. By watching out for your neighbors, you will reduce the opportunity for criminal activity near your residence. Invest in your Neighbors can improve your own quality of life and safety. Reminder: Do not engage physically or in conversation with a suspect in any crime, call the Clearwater Police from a safe location and inform CPD of the suspect(s) illegal activity, clothing, race and gender, height, weight, vehicle, and direction of travel.

With the cooler weather, many residents are out enjoying the neighborhood. Being outside alone can be dangerous, especially when it is dark. Predators lay in wait for people to pass and catch them by surprise. It’s safer to exercise with a partner as most criminals will avoid groups of two or more. When you go out, always be on alert. Pay careful attention to your surroundings and avoid areas that are not well lit. If you listen to music while you exercise, keep the volume low enough that you can hear what's happening around you. A predator may sneak up from behind if they know you have neither seen nor heard them.
