Advisory
IMPORTANT MESSAGE FROM CHIEF MCGOVERN TO ALL RESIDENTS
Dear Fair Haven Residents,
Notification from the Fair Haven Police Department: CAR THEFTS
Unfortunately, there has been an increase of car thefts again throughout the state. At times they have also been entering houses to locate keys for the cars. Last night we also had a theft of 2 cars from one residence in town. We need to continue our efforts to combat this crime.
Below are some reminders we ask you to continue to do:
Reminders:
- NEVER leave your children in the vehicle unattended
- NEVER leave the vehicle running unattended
- NEVER approach any suspected car thieves
- NEVER leave valuables in your car that can be viewed
- 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
- 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
- Report any suspicious activity immediately to police dispatch via 911 or #732-747-0991 and press 0 for the dispatcher
Sincerely,
Chief Joseph P. McGovern
