PURCHASE OF $32 OR MORE "You don't want to blame the victims, but you've got to think of safety," said Fogerty this week. "You have to have com mon sense." Many residents, particularly college students and renters, leave doors or windows unlocked or open. When potential thieves find the doors unlocked they help themselves to whatever is in the apartment or car, say police. "It's window shop~ng. They just don't pay for what they take," said District 14 Detective Paul Donovan. Donovan said that locked doors and windows would deter many of the thieves from enter ing the homes or cars. "You have people who go out there every day because that's their job, to steal," said Fogerty. But many crimes could be pre vented by placing tempting items like lap top computers, cell phones, pagers or palm pilots in car trunks or simply by locking car doors, say police. "A little effort on a person's part and a crime ... wouldn't be committed," said Fogerty. Donovan said that many of the home B/E's could also be pre vented by locking doors and closing windows. "If we get people to reduce the opportunity then we make the bad guy's job harder," said Donovan. Police are urging residents to properly secure air conditioners in windows, check locks and door frames for flaws or weak nesses and install deadbolts. Since many of the break-ins occur during working or school MAY WE hours, police say it is key to keep SUGGEST: doors locked at all times.
