Oct 19, 2015 - Sergeant Keith Kaminski of the Phoenix PD Property Crimes unit gave us good advice about minimizing the risk of having valuables stolen from cars and garages. Regarding cars, the message to remember is Take it - Lock it - Conceal it. Never leave valuables in your car even for a short time and always keep your garage doors closed. He told us that thieves are well organized in gangs and are always watching for opportunities, especially in parking lots or on crowded streets. He advised us to record serial numbers of bicyles and electronic devices to help recovery if they are stolen. He handles about 1,000 property crimes a month and said that these types of crimes are the most common. Keith recommended that we call Crime Stop at 602-262-6151 if we see suspicious activity in our neighborhood.
