This upcoming weekend is "KICK IT TO THE CURB". Instead of putting out items for anyone to pick up, how about supporting crime prevention and donating those items to our CACPC garage sale for crime prevention. FREE PICK-UP starting in June! Request pick-up https://t.co/IhdxcyQuWd

If your bike goes missing, would you have the serial number, make & model to give the RCMP so they could return it to you? If not, we highly recommend you register your bike with Red Deer's 529 Garage bike registry. Download the app or visit https://t.co/UHA91VeQNy #endbiketheft

Auto theft can happen at any time. Approximately 200 cars are stolen per day in Canada. In 2019, about 27% of those were in Alberta. Over 40% of cars that are stolen have the keys accessible. Awareness is an important part of crime prevention https://t.co/ag4Pc41A7i

SCAM ALERT: With the pandemic, many Canadians have turned to online shopping. Criminals are aware of the increase in online traffic and the Canadian Anti-Fraud Centre is observing a rise in non-delivery scams reported https://t.co/MJpVUvyLTx

SCAM ALERT: Grant scams are offers of guaranteed free money. Yet, fraudsters will collect personal and financial information, upfront fees, and leave consumers with empty promises https://t.co/19pc3D76d7
