Safe Shopper 2017 - Holiday
Season Safety Tips
During this
holiday season, the San Francisco Police Department will be working to enhance
safety for residents, visitors and shoppers. There will be increased foot
patrols in shopping areas throughout the city, including the horse/mounted
unit, plainclothes officers and traffic enforcement.
“The men
and women of the San Francisco Police Department wish everyone a safe and
joyful holiday season,” said Chief William Scott. “Whether you’re shopping for
gifts or going about your daily routine, it’s important to remain careful and
aware to prevent theft. Follow our tips to help keep you and your belongings
safe.”
• Stay
alert when using electronic devices. Limit your distractions.
• Always be
alert to your surroundings and have your keys in your hand as you approach your
vehicle.
• Park
Smart: Help avoid vehicle break-ins, leave nothing visible in your car.
Consider moving your vehicle to a different location each time you load
packages in the trunk. Try to use parking lots where there are parking
attendants.
• Keep your
wallet in a hard-to-reach place and carry only the cash and credit cards that
you will need to complete your shopping.
• If
someone demands your purse, wallet, or packages, surrender them, make note of the
suspect’s description and direction they flee and call 911. Property can be
replaced.
• If you
see something, say something. If you witness criminal activity or see something
or someone suspicious, flag down a police officer, call 911 or contact security.
• Use 311
to report auto burglaries.
• Shop with
a companion, especially after dark, whenever possible.
•
Shield your PIN when using ATMs or other electronic devices in public.
Please report criminal activity
to police immediately. Additional personal safety tips are available at
