For Emergencies: Dial 911
Village residents are reminded to not only remove the keys from their unattended vehicles, but also to lock the car itself at all times. Also, any valuables including items such as IPODS, GPS devices, etc. should either be removed from the vehicle or at least stored in vehicles’ locked trunk out of plain view. Some of our neighboring communities surrounding the Village have had an increase in these types of thefts and damage done to vehicles recently. Forwarded for your information.
