Security Tips -FINDING AN INTRUDER IN YOUR HOME
By Marvin Badler
If you come home and find your front door is ajar, what should you do?
DO NOT GO INSIDE
If you suspect a burglar is still in the house, do not go in. Go to a neighbor's house to call the sheriff. Wait until the sheriffs arrive before you enter and begin to take an inventory of what is missing. Don't touch anything. The deputy may dust for fingerprints. Provide deputy with whatever information they require. Ask the investigating officer where you can obtain a copy of the police report. Make sure you write down the names and badge numbers of the police officers.
Note: The same rule applies if there is any damage to your door or windows, which was not there when you left home earlier in the day: DO NOT GO INSIDE!
What should you do if you arrive home and interrupt a burglar?
1) Remain as calm as possible.
2) Do not shout or antagonize the intruder in any way.
3) Follow all instructions.
4) When the burglar leaves, discreetly try to see which way
He/she goes, and the color, make and license plate of the
Car, if any.
5) Call police immediately.
If you arrive home and think there is someone inside your house or apartment, should you call a neighbor or 911, so that both of you can check your home and wait for the Sheriff.
Do not add another victim to the crime. Instead, CALL 911
If you awaken at night and think there is an intruder in your home:
1) Stay in bed, be quiet and pretend to be asleep.
2) Call 911 when the burglar leaves.
If you see a prowler on your property, or if someone is trying to break into your home:
1) Make a lot of noise by shouting or screaming.
2) CALL 911 IMMEDIATELY!
