[DULUTH, MN] - As a reminder this holiday shopping season, just a few extra efforts can prevent items getting stolen from your car or home. Some helpful tips include: 

  • Turn your car off and lock your doors every time you leave your car - even when running a quick errand
  • Keep the items you buy locked in your trunk or cover items under a blanket

To prevent delivered packages from getting stolen be sure to track their arrival and: 

  • Stop home to bring deliveries inside
  • Have a neighbor you trust bring the items inside

Anytime you experience a theft, report it immediately to 911.
