On Tuesday, November 29, 2011, at 10 a.m., at the Yorkdale Shopping Centre at 3401 Dufferin Street, in front of Famous Players/Indigo Mall Entrance, the Ontario Association of Chiefs of Police (OACP) will kick off its annual Lock It or Lose It campaign, a proactive crime prevention program that encourages motorists to take a few simple precautions to protect their vehicles and valuables from theft – just in time for the holiday season.

Media are invited to join police officers on a walk through the Yorkdale Shopping Centre parking lot as officers look for unsecured vehicles.

Police leaders and officers from the OPP and municipal police services will be joined by corporate supporters to kick off the OACP’s annual province-wide crime prevention campaign.

Inclement weather alternate location: directly inside the Famous Players/Indigo mall entrance.

Under the Lock It or Lose It program, police officers throughout Ontario examine parked vehicles to confirm they are locked and that no valuables have been left in plain view.

On Monday, November 28, 2011, between 5 p.m. and 11 p.m., 42 Division will be kicking off Project Rope. Officers will be riding TTC buses and speaking with riders about safety concerns regarding cellphones and other small handheld electrical devices and the theft of them.

TTC riders are being targeted either while waiting to board a bus, or on exiting the bus. Suspects are grabbing the device out of the hands of the users or asking for the time to lure the victim into taking out one of these devices at which time the suspect will grab the device and flee.

Officers will be using this opportunity to provide riders with safety tips to protect their personal property and enhance their awareness of crime prevention.

Please contact 42 Division Community Service Office for any further information at 416 808-4220 or 416-808-4296.
