Crime Stats 6/27/10 – 7/3/10
July 6th, 2010
Many neighborhoods in District 25 are forming Block Watches. The Block Watch Program is an active partnership between the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) and area residents to increase community awareness and crime prevention. The Neighborhood Watch Program is a vital network that provides each resident with the knowledge and resources to fight crime. In an effort to strengthen Block Watches, I will be sharing reported crimes that have occurred in the Third Division which protects District 25. In addition, crime prevention tips will accompany the crime trends in an effort to fight crime.
If you are interested in forming a Block Watch, please call me at 574-1125.

Auto Theft Prevention Tips
1. Lock your car doors and close your windows.
2. Don’t leave valuables in your car. If you do, make sure they are kept out of plain sight — hide them under a blanket, or better yet, lock them in your trunk.
3. When transporting valuables, place them in the trunk before you get to the location where you intend to park. Don’t transfer them at the parking place in open view of other people.
4. If you have a garage, use it.
5. Don’t leave your garage door opener on the dashboard or front seat. Put it in your glove box, hide it or take it with you.
6. Always park in a well-lighted area.
7. Use slide or portable mounts on add-on radios, citizens’ band radios (CBs), tape decks and telephones. When you leave your car, put them in the trunk or take them with you.
8. Mark radios, CBs, tape decks, telephones, batteries, wheel covers and tires with an Operation Identification number. If the stolen item is found later, the number can be traced back to you. To enroll in Operation ID, contact Community Crime Prevention/SAFE at 673-3204.
9. Remember: briefcases, sunglasses, clothing, keys, gyms bags and small change are all tempting to a thief.
10. Leave only the ignition key with the parking attendant in a commercial parking lot.
11. Keep your driver’s license and vehicle registration with you. Left with the car, the documents can be used by a thief to impersonate you when transferring the car’s ownership.
12. Car keys left at home (or at your business) should always be hidden. This will help prevent the theft of your vehicle if you are burglarized.
13. There are locks made for various marketable parts of cars. Battery locks, wheel locks and special tape deck lock mounts can save these items plus any damage that may occur in the process of stealing them.
14. Install a locking gas tank cap to help prevent gasoline theft and limit a thief’s driving range to one tank.
15. Park the front wheel turned sharply to the right or left, making it difficult for the professional thief to tow your car away backwards.
16. With front wheel drive cars: When you park, pull on the emergency brake and place your vehicle in Park. If you have a stick shift, pull on the emergency brake and shift into forward or reverse gear. All four wheels will be locked, making it difficult for a thief to tow your car.
17. Call 911 as soon as theft occurs.

Auto Theft Prevention Tips
1. Lock your car doors and close your windows.
2. Don’t leave valuables in your car. If you do, make sure they are kept out of plain sight — hide them under a blanket, or better yet, lock them in your trunk.
3. When transporting valuables, place them in the trunk before you get to the location where you intend to park. Don’t transfer them at the parking place in open view of other people.
4. If you have a garage, use it.
5. Don’t leave your garage door opener on the dashboard or front seat. Put it in your glove box, hide it or take it with you.
6. Always park in a well-lighted area.
7. Use slide or portable mounts on add-on radios, citizens’ band radios (CBs), tape decks and telephones. When you leave your car, put them in the trunk or take them with you.
8. Mark radios, CBs, tape decks, telephones, batteries, wheel covers and tires with an Operation Identification number. If the stolen item is found later, the number can be traced back to you. To enroll in Operation ID, contact Community Crime Prevention/SAFE at 673-3204.
9. Remember: briefcases, sunglasses, clothing, keys, gyms bags and small change are all tempting to a thief.
10. Leave only the ignition key with the parking attendant in a commercial parking lot.
11. Keep your driver’s license and vehicle registration with you. Left with the car, the documents can be used by a thief to impersonate you when transferring the car’s ownership.
12. Car keys left at home (or at your business) should always be hidden. This will help prevent the theft of your vehicle if you are burglarized.
13. There are locks made for various marketable parts of cars. Battery locks, wheel locks and special tape deck lock mounts can save these items plus any damage that may occur in the process of stealing them.
14. Install a locking gas tank cap to help prevent gasoline theft and limit a thief’s driving range to one tank.
15. Park the front wheel turned sharply to the right or left, making it difficult for the professional thief to tow your car away backwards.
16. With front wheel drive cars: When you park, pull on the emergency brake and place your vehicle in Park. If you have a stick shift, pull on the emergency brake and shift into forward or reverse gear. All four wheels will be locked, making it difficult for a thief to tow your car.
17. Call 911 as soon as theft occurs.

Crime Stats 5/30/10 – 6/5/10
June 7th, 2010
Many neighborhoods in District 25 are forming Block Watches. The Block Watch Program is an active partnership between the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) and area residents to increase community awareness and crime prevention. The Neighborhood Watch Program is a vital network that provides each resident with the knowledge and resources to fight crime. In an effort to strengthen Block Watches, I will be sharing reported crimes that have occurred in the Third Division which protects District 25. In addition, crime prevention tips will accompany the crime trends in an effort to fight crime.
If you are interested in forming a Block Watch, please call me at 574-1125.

Councilman Doug Hawkins will appear on the Kyana This Week Show with Kathi Lincoln. Councilman Hawkins and Kathi will be discussing crime trends, crime statistics and common sense crime prevention in the Louisville area. CM Hawkins was able to discuss the Stranger Danger Program he has so proudly sponsored in all district 25 elementary schools. The show will air this Sunday morning at 6:00 am and again at 6:30 am on four different Cox Radio channels for your convenience. Tune-in at breakfast time, before you go to church!

WSFR 107.7 (6:30 am and 7:00 am)
WVEZ 106.9 (6:30 am and 7:00 am)

Auto Theft Prevention Tips
1. Lock your car doors and close your windows.
2. Don’t leave valuables in your car. If you do, make sure they are kept out of plain sight — hide them under a blanket, or better yet, lock them in your trunk.
3. When transporting valuables, place them in the trunk before you get to the location where you intend to park. Don’t transfer them at the parking place in open view of other people.
4. If you have a garage, use it.
5. Don’t leave your garage door opener on the dashboard or front seat. Put it in your glove box, hide it or take it with you.
6. Always park in a well-lighted area.
7. Use slide or portable mounts on add-on radios, citizens’ band radios (CBs), tape decks and telephones. When you leave your car, put them in the trunk or take them with you.
8. Mark radios, CBs, tape decks, telephones, batteries, wheel covers and tires with an Operation Identification number. If the stolen item is found later, the number can be traced back to you. To enroll in Operation ID, contact Community Crime Prevention/SAFE at 673-3204.
9. Remember: briefcases, sunglasses, clothing, keys, gyms bags and small change are all tempting to a thief.
10. Leave only the ignition key with the parking attendant in a commercial parking lot.
11. Keep your driver’s license and vehicle registration with you. Left with the car, the documents can be used by a thief to impersonate you when transferring the car’s ownership.
12. Car keys left at home (or at your business) should always be hidden. This will help prevent the theft of your vehicle if you are burglarized.
13. There are locks made for various marketable parts of cars. Battery locks, wheel locks and special tape deck lock mounts can save these items plus any damage that may occur in the process of stealing them.
14. Install a locking gas tank cap to help prevent gasoline theft and limit a thief’s driving range to one tank.
15. Park the front wheel turned sharply to the right or left, making it difficult for the professional thief to tow your car away backwards.
16. With front wheel drive cars: When you park, pull on the emergency brake and place your vehicle in Park. If you have a stick shift, pull on the emergency brake and shift into forward or reverse gear. All four wheels will be locked, making it difficult for a thief to tow your car.
17. Call 911 as soon as theft occurs.

Violent Home Invasion In Shively
May 20th, 2010
One man was shot multiple times and another struck with a pistol during a violent home invasion.
Around 12:30 a.m. this morning a Shively police officer on routine patrol heard gun shots and quickly responded to Loney Lane off Dixie Highway (close to Millers Lane).
Shively Police say they are looking for three men wearing dark clothing who ran from the scene on foot and then were seen getting into an older model dark colored Buick LeSabre. Two suspects had pistols and the other was caring a rifle.
A local news channel reported that the victims’ injuries are “non-life threatening.”
Anyone with information is asked to contact
Shivley Police at 448-6181
or
Crime Stoppers at 582-2583
Crime Stats 5/9/10 – 5/15/10
May 18th, 2010
Many neighborhoods in District 25 are forming Block Watches. The Block Watch Program is an active partnership between the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) and area residents to increase community awareness and crime prevention. The Neighborhood Watch Program is a vital network that provides each resident with the knowledge and resources to fight crime. In an effort to strengthen Block Watches, I will be sharing reported crimes that have occurred in the Third Division which protects District 25. In addition, crime prevention tips will accompany the crime trends in an effort to fight crime.
If you are interested in forming a Block Watch, please call me at 574-1125.
