Thanks to two of our WilCO Deputies for being Guest Speakers at our October 24th NASWC quarterly meeting. Their comments included crime stats for our area, new phone APP, and tip lines for the Sheriff’s Department. WilCO Sheriff’s Dept. also offers programs to youth interested in learning about law enforcement.
1) Most of the vehicle burglaries occurring in our neighborhood are from flippers finding unlocked vehicles. Please lock your vehicles — doors, trunks, toolboxes, hatchback doors – every time.
2) WilCO has a new APP for smart phones — visit the Sheriff’s Dept. website for info, features, and to download the app.
3) The Emercency & Community Contacts webpage provides phone (512-943-1170) and email tiplines to report suspicious activity in the neighborhood, including drug activity such as high volume of traffic or foot activity to a location, unusual smells, other suspicious activity.
