Reducing crime in Alberta cannot be achieved through policing alone – a collaborative approach, such as this incident, where citizens and law enforcement work together to stop crime is the most effective way to keep St. Albert safe. Timely reports of suspicious activities to the police while keeping a safe distance from suspects is an important part of stopping crime in the city.
Members of the community are reminded of their role in preventing criminal activity:
- Lock up houses, sheds, vehicles and any other property that is easily accessible
- Never leave running vehicles unlocked. Nearly half of the vehicle thefts in Alberta over the past year have had the keys left inside
- Take photos and record serial numbers of property
- If you see or suspect suspicious activity notify police immediately
