  • North Hills Neighborhood Crime Watch Update

    November’s Neighborhood Crime Watch meeting was a great success. We discussed the “Lock it, Hide it, Keep it” an LAPD Intuitive that North Hills West NC partnered to support financially. We also discussed ways to stay safe during the holiday season and as the dark sets in sooner this winter such as changing patterns and habits at home with lighting, locking side yard gates, calling the LAPD if you see ANY suspicious activity and calling in Graffiti to 311 – (it’s still a free, anonymous call).

    We need more neighbors to participate and be part of the team to protect our neighborhoods. If you’d like to volunteer your organizational skills and be a team leader, please contact Officer Ken Crawford at 23536@LAPD.LACITY.org or call him 818-363-1726 for more information.

    Our next general meeting:

    February 28th, 2012
    Church of the Living Word (Rayen and Haskell)
    Neighborhood Crime Watch meeting with Officer Crawford
