Pretend you are the burglar and plan how you would break into your own house. Install secondary locking devices (such as anti-lift devices, through-the-door pins, or track screws).<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Create the illusion that you are home using timers on lights, radios, and televisions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Use a timer or photocell to automatically turn on lights at dusk. Leave porch lights on throughout the night, even when you are home.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Keep shrubbery near doors and windows trimmed. Don\u2019t provide the burglars with a hiding place or climbing platform.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Avoid displaying valuable items such as TVs and computers near windows with open drapes or shades.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Use highly visible alarms signs, \u201cBeware of Dog\u201d signs, or Neighborhood Watch decals.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Don\u2019t leave your garage door transmitter in your vehicle, or at least keep it out of view (the visor is not a good place). Also keep the door locked leading from the garage into the house. If the burglar gets into your car you don\u2019t want to give him\/her easy access to your garage and then your house.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Keep extra keys out of sight and in a safe place. Never hide a key outside, most hiding places are obvious to burglars.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\">Organize a Neighborhood Watch group to protect your neighborhood. Contact the City of Palmdale\u2019s Public Safety Office at (661)267-5170 or at <\/span><a style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\" href=\"mailto:publicsafety@cityofpalmdale.org\">publicsafety@cityofpalmdale.org<\/a><span style=\"letter-spacing: 0.05em;\"> for more information on organizing a Neighborhood Watch group.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>If you see suspicious people or vehicles in your neighborhood, contact the Palmdale Sheriff\u2019s Station at 661-272-2400.<\/p>\n<p>Previous related stories:<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><a title=\"5 home burglaries, 2 attempts in Palmdale last week\" href=\"https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/2013\/08\/20\/5-home-burglaries-2-attempts-in-palmdale-last-week\/\" target=\"_blank\">5 home burglaries, 2 attempts in Palmdale last week<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><a title=\"6 home burglaries, 1 attempt last week in Palmdale\" href=\"https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/2013\/08\/13\/6-home-burglaries-1-attempt-last-week-in-palmdale\/\" target=\"_blank\">6 home burglaries, 1 attempt last week in Palmdale<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><em><a title=\"10 home burglaries last week in Palmdale\" href=\"https:\/\/theavtimes.com\/2013\/08\/01\/10-home-burglaries-last-week-in-palmdale\/\" target=\"_blank\">10 home burglaries last week in Palmdale\u00a0<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<div>&#8211;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PALMDALE \u2013 In continuing its effort to raise awareness of public safety and crime prevention, Palmdale Sheriff\u2019s Station has released details on recent home break-ins reported within Palmdale.
