14th Annual Troy Police VFW Post ##4037 Sponsored Food & Gift Drive!! With the holiday season just around the corner our
annual food/gift drive is in the process of soliciting assistance throughout the
Troy business, government and residential community in collecting food/gifts,
financial donations and adopting families in Troy who require assistance. Recent economic troubles have hit
everyone in our area, but with disproportionate impact to those already
experiencing economic hardships. Our well-organized
groups of dedicated and caring Troy volunteers ensure that collected
Food/Gift contributions are given directly to those persons needing
assistance. Again we call upon our community volunteers to keep this annual program running smoothly. This is my fourth year coordinating the
food/gift drive along with Charlie Solis of the VFW and I look forward to
assisting you in this worthwhile program.
Please contact me with your point of contact person, any ideas, family
adoption requests and coordination concerns. P.O.

_____________________________________________ Crime Prevention Tips
Ø If you would like to have the security of your residence
or business inspected please contact the Troy Police Crime Prevention Officer
at 248-524-3464! Larcenies from Autos / Car Theft
Things that can be done
to combat auto theft and larcenies from autos include: Ø Installing a
car alarm. Ø Using steering-wheel locking applications like the club
etc. Ø Applications of a hidden kill switch to the ignition
system. Ø Park in a well lit well traveled area if possible. Ø Always maintain security of vehicle keys. Ø Do not leave anything of value in your
vehicle in plain view. Ø Always lock your vehicle doors. Ø Never leave a vehicle unattended while running. Ø There is a trend of things being stolen from
vehicles in the parking lots of fitness centers and fun centers. While going
to these places, be extra careful to remove all items of value and secure
your vehicle. Home Invasion / B&E
Always secure your doors and windows. Ø Garages and door walls
are targets for thieves. Ø Always ensure your garage
door and pedestrian doors are secured. Ø Replace the ½” Screws securing
your strike plate covers with 3” screws to secure the door into the frame of
the home. Ø Do not leave garage door
remote controls in cars not parked in the garage. Ø Use 1 ½’’ dowel rod in
the track of all sliding glass windows and doors to help prevent them from
opening. Ø It has been proven time
and time again that the proper use and application of physical security will
stop a would-be burglar. Ø Burglary alarms are only
as reliable as the person setting them.
If you have an alarm, make sure that every resident or employee knows
how to activate and deactivate it, as well as the security code. ______________________________________
