As summer gets underway, the Lakewood Police Department is reminding residents to take a few simple precautions to help keep the community safe throughout the season.
Police encourage residents to lock their vehicles and avoid leaving valuables in plain sight, secure their homes and garage doors, and promptly report any suspicious activity. Motorists are also urged to slow down and remain alert for children, pedestrians, and bicyclists spending more time outdoors during the warmer months.
The department says that by working together and staying vigilant, residents can help ensure Lakewood remains a safe place to live, work, and visit all summer long.
In an emergency, call 911. To report suspicious activity, contact the Lakewood Police Department at 732-363-0200.
