Did you know that in a typical two-week period, Sumner police respond to over 680 requests for service, including cases of vehicle prowl, identity theft, residential burglary and criminal trespass?
One of the best things you can do to greatly improve your safety is form a block watch.
Just by knowing your neighbors and meeting with them at least once a year, you multiply the chance that you or your neighbors will be able to quickly recognize when something’s not right in your neighborhood and call the police.
It’s easy: invite the neighbors over for a barbecue. Ask an officer to stop by and answer your questions. We’ll get you started with Block Watch in a Box, including invitations, blank rosters to fill in, some Sumner crime statistics, and even a recipe or two.
