Don't fall prey to would be thieves like this video shows. Join the #9pmRoutine tonight! 
Recently, in a community page, a resident posted footage from their security camera of a man going car to car, checking to see if any doors were unlocked. Had any of the doors been unlocked, it would have only been a matter of seconds before he stole items from the car. The owners wouldn't even have noticed until the next morning.
Lancaster Sheriff's Station takes this time to remind our community about the #9PMRoutine!
Join us in developing and promoting safe habits to prevent unnecessary thefts from vehicles, as well as home and car burglaries.
We encourage you to set a nightly alarm at 9:00pm on your smartphone, watch or other device to remind you to do the following:
1. Remove valuables (electronic devices, wallets, etc.) from your vehicle.
2. Ensure that vehicle doors and trunks are locked.
3. Check that all house and property exterior doors and garages are locked.
4. Turn on exterior lights.
We are all in this together, so don't just join us - help us spread the word within your community! Post a picture of you locking your doors and/or securing your car, hashtag #9PMRoutine. Remind your neighbors, friends and loved ones to lock their valuables too!
Don't become the victim of a preventable crime!
