The holiday season is one of the most joyful times of the year, filled with lights, celebrations, and gift-giving. But it also brings packed stores, busy parking lots, and plenty of distractions that can make shoppers easy targets for thieves. From Black Friday through the final days of December, keeping safety in mind can help ensure your holiday cheer doesn’t turn into holiday stress.
Before heading out, plan ahead and stay alert with these key shopping safety tips:
Shop with a friend or family member. There’s safety in numbers.
Keep your belongings secure. Hold your purse close and carry your wallet in a front pocket or inside coat pocket — never in your cart or back pocket.
Use cards or digital payments. Avoid flashing cash and only take out money when paying.
Disguise high-value purchases. Place expensive items in plain or less noticeable shopping bags.
Watch your belongings in food courts. Keep bags beneath your table and within reach.
Stick to one credit card. If your card is stolen or a data breach occurs, you’ll limit the potential damage.
Check your statements. Save receipts and monitor your credit card activity regularly.
Have a family plan. If shopping with children, choose a central meeting spot in case you get separated. Teach your children to ask a security guard or store employee for help.
Stay aware. Avoid excessive phone use and don’t overload yourself with bags.
Parking lot safety:
Park in well-lit areas and shop during daylight when possible.
Lock your car and store valuables in the trunk before you arrive.
Stay alert while walking to your vehicle, have your keys ready, and your phone put away.
The holidays should be merry, not stressful. A little awareness and preparation go a long way toward keeping your shopping trips safe and your season bright.
Stay safe and happy holidays!

Purse theft is a common crime that can happen to anyone, often leaving victims feeling vulnerable and frustrated. Understanding how thieves operate—and taking a few simple precautions—can go a long way in keeping your belongings safe.
There are two main types of purse theft: pickpocketing and purse snatching. Pickpockets are skilled at slipping items out of purses or pockets without the victim noticing, often striking in crowded areas such as grocery stores, markets, or public transit. Purse snatching, on the other hand, is more aggressive—thieves grab a purse and run, usually targeting people walking on the street or sitting at cafés.
Thieves often choose distracted individuals carrying loosely secured bags. They may also work in pairs, with one person creating a distraction while the other takes the wallet or purse.
Recent incidents in Roseville highlight these tactics.
Incident 1: While grocery shopping around 4 p.m., a woman was approached by another shopper who asked product questions. Moments later, her wallet was gone. Within an hour, her stolen cards were used to make purchases totaling $13,000.
Prevention Tip: Keep handbags zipped and secure. Be cautious of strangers who attempt to distract you.
Incident 2: In another case, a woman shopping around 1 p.m. was crowded in the freezer aisle by a male and a female. She later discovered her wallet was missing, and her credit card was quickly used for an $840 purchase.
Prevention Tip: Stay alert in stores, especially when others invade your personal space.
Protect yourself:
Use crossbody bags with locking zippers or slash-resistant straps.
Keep purses on your lap or between your feet in cafés—never on the back of a chair.
Stick to well-lit, busy areas, especially at night.
Limit the amount of cash and valuables you carry.
Never leave your purse unattended in your cart.
If your purse or wallet is stolen, report it to the police immediately and notify your bank or credit card companies.
Staying alert and taking precautions doesn’t just protect your belongings—it gives you peace of mind.

In today’s busy, often disconnected world, one of the most effective ways to prevent crime doesn’t require high-tech gadgets or costly security systems-it’s simply getting to know your neighbors.
Strong neighborhood connections create a safer environment by encouraging residents to look out for one another and act when something seems suspicious.
Why familiarity matters
When neighbors know each other:
They notice changes, such as unfamiliar vehicles or people.
They recognize threats early and can alert others or call authorities.
They build trust-making it easier to share important information.
This “natural surveillance” makes it harder for criminals to blend in or operate unnoticed.
Neighborhood Watch: Proven Results
The National Sheriff’s Association reports that areas with active Neighborhood Watch programs see crime reductions of up to 16%.
These programs:
Encourage neighbors to connect.
Provide information on spotting and reporting suspicious activity.
Build a visible deterrent to criminals.
Small actions can have a big impact
You don’t have to organize a formal program to make a difference. Simple steps include:
Greeting your neighbors regularly.
Exchanging phone numbers.
Informing each other about travel plans.
Even these small actions signal that people are connected-and watching out for one another.
The bottom line
In a world where screens often replace face-to-face interaction, community connection may feel old-fashioned. However, it remains one of the most effective and low-cost tools for keeping neighborhoods safe.
Strong communities are safer communities-and it starts with a simple “hello.”
