Lock it. Report it. Stop it.
05/26/2026
We've recently received reports from residents regarding thefts occurring in neighborhoods across the county. Items such as bicycles are being taken from yards and carports, and in several cases, vehicles have been left unlocked and burglarized. Unfortunately, some of these incidents have also involved firearms being stolen from unsecured vehicles.
We understand the frustration and concern this causes... it's upsetting. That's why we're asking our community to take a proactive approach in helping prevent these crimes.
We want to remind everyone that prevention starts at home. Please take a moment to secure your property:
-Lock your vehicles every time, even when parked at home
-Remove valuables from plain sight
-Never leave firearms unsecured inside a vehicle
-Secure bicycles and outdoor equipment
Our deputies are working diligently to investigate these incidents and increase patrols in affected areas. However, we cannot do this alone. We are asking all residents to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity. If you see someone or something that doesn't look right, please contact us right away.
