Dear Cortez,
We know that thieves wander at night. They try to open car doors. If they are unlocked, they help themselves to YOUR belongings. Please take valuables inside. Wallets, purses, identification, important mail and papers, GUNS and weapons, sporting equipment, backpacks, boxes that may look enticing, phones and electronics, sunglasses, coins or cash, car titles or registrations with your listed address.
Start a habit of checking your vehicle each night - #9pmRoutine is a great practice, but maybe it's a 7pm routine for you. Remind your neighbors, friends, parents and teen drivers.
Stay safe,
Cortez Police Department
