The Department of Public Safety (DPS) is teaming up with the 鶹ƵPolice Department (SPD) to help decrease the number of vehicle thefts in the area.
On Friday, Nov. 15 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., officers from DPS and SPD will be at the Hookway Athletic Field lot, 1799 E. Colvin St., to distribute steering wheel locks to both 鶹ƵUniversity community members and 鶹Ƶresidents. The steering wheel locks are free of charge.
“This event reflects our commitment to taking proactive measures in crime prevention and community engagement. Through this initiative, we hope to arm vehicle owners with an additional layer of protection to reduce the likelihood of theft,” says DPS Commander James McLellan.
“These steering wheel locks serve as a visible and effective deterrent to potential car thieves. The 鶹ƵPolice Department is dedicated to working with state and local partners like DPS to promote awareness about vehicle security,” says SPD Sergeant Tom Blake.
