Police social-media (continued from page 8)

have already been reported, the largest spike since 2007, police said. In at least one recent burglary, neighbors on either side of the victim’s residence were at home when the burglary occurred in daylight. Among the items stolen was a large flat-screen television, police said. The Lock It or Lose It! campaign urges residents to lock up belongings, doors and windows and to report suspicious behavior in their neighborhoods. Residents are at the heart of getting a handle on the burglary spike and keeping it under control, Perron said. The public is the department’s “eyes and ears,” he said. The department also encourages people who are not up to speed on social media to have their children or grandchildren sign up on their behalf and let them know of any important news, he said.
