Holiday Safety

The Chula Vista Police Officers’ Association wishes you a safe and happy holiday season. We offer you some safety tips to make the holidays fun and crime-free for you and your loved ones.

Home Safety

  • Be extra cautious about locking doors and windows when you leave the house, even if you will only be gone for a minute.

  • Don't put large displays of holiday gifts in view of your windows or doors.

  • When going on trips or out for evenings, use automatic timers to turn indoor lights.

  • Immediately after the holidays, mark new gifts with your California Driver's License or ID number.

  • Don't advertise what you got for Christmas by putting the boxes out on trash day. Break the boxes down or take them to the dump yourself.

Shopping Safety

  • Lock packages in the trunk.

  • Don't overload yourself with packages.

  • If you must shop in the evening, shop with a friend.

  • Park in well-lighted areas, as close as possible to store entrances.

  • Lock your car and make sure the windows are closed.

  • Carry only the charge cards you will need. Don't carry or flash large sums of cash.

  • Carry your purse next to your body with the purse flap against you. Men should carry their wallets in front or inside pockets.

  • Be aware of your surroundings and the people around you. Don't allow your attention to become distracted from your purse or packages.

  • Teach children to go to a store clerk or security guard and ask for help if you become separated.

  • Don't hesitate to notify store security if you see suspicious activity.

  • If you have to wait for a ride, wait in a busy, well-lighted place.

  • If you are a victim of a crime, report it to police immediately.
