Advisory

IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM CHIEF MCGOVERN TO ALL RESIDENTS

Dear Fair Haven Residents,

With the warmer weather approaching, we wanted to give you a few reminders on how to keep you and your family safe. We have been fortunate and not experienced any incidents with car thefts in the past several months. There has been some activity in surrounding towns so we all must stay vigilant to discourage all criminals to avoid Fair Haven. Below are reminders:

·        Lock your vehicles at all times

·        Remove keys, fobs, spare keys/fobs and any valet keys that newer vehicles come with

·        If your vehicle has a side mirror feature, program it to turn the mirrors in when the vehicle is locked

·        NEVER leave your children in the vehicle unattended

·        NEVER leave the vehicle running unattended

·        If you keep your vehicles in your garage- still remove keys, fobs and lock the doors

·        Keep all house doors locked including the door from the garage into the house

·        Keep your garage door closed and locked at all times

·        NEVER approach any suspected car thieves

·        Report any suspicious activity immediately to police dispatch via 911 or #732-747-0991 and press ‘0’ for the dispatcher

If we all work together we can combat this criminal activity.

Sincerely,

Chief Joseph P. McGovern
