Full Notification

Recently the Arcadia Police Department and surrounding agencies have noticed an uptick in the number of mail thefts.  This increase may be in response to the recent stimulus checks/debit cards that have been sent out.  In order to prevent these thefts, we offer the following tips:

-Please pick up your mail as soon as possible after it is delivered.
-Secure or Lock your mail box.
-Don’t let your mail stack up for multiple days. 
-If you are gone during the daytime, consider a Post Office Box (PO Box).
-If you are out of town, have a neighbor or relative collect your mail daily.

We are working together with the US Postal Service to combat these thefts, but we need your help to reduce the opportunity for these thieves.  We have adjusted our regular patrols to have officers in the areas where mail theft is more prevalent. 

The Arcadia Police Department wants to remind our community to call us if you see someone or something suspicious.  As always, we ask “If You See Something, Say Something.”
