Woodstock Police are backing the Ontario Association of Chief of Police’s 2017 Crime Prevention Campaign; Shoulda Coulda Woulda Crime Prevention Starts With You.
The Shoulda Coulda Woulda Crime Prevention Starts With You campaign focuses on the top 10 crimes or potential situations where victimization can occur. Woodstock Police has created a list of 10 crimes where victimization can occur which keep our officers up at night.
- Residential Break & Enters
- Impaired/Drugged Driving
- Cyber Crime/Identity Theft
- Fraud - Online exchanges
- Theft from Vehicles/Theft of Vehicles
- Theft of Bicycles
- Theft from Garages, Lockers, Mail Boxes, Sheds, and Front Porches (Deliveries)
- Awareness of Your Surroundings to Prevent Assaults
- Pharmacy Thefts/Robberies
- Theft of Prescription Drugs
Woodstock Police Chief Bill Renton says the goal of the campaign is to heighten awareness of the simple things we can all do to protect our property and personal safety and wellbeing.
"Our police officers work with many individuals and groups in our community to promote crime prevention initiatives throughout the year. We are supporting this year’s OACP Province-wide campaign, which asks each of us to do the small things that add up to big crime prevention success."
"There's some contact information on some of the different agencies that help out with national or provincial frauds and scams and there's really good literature on some crime prevention tips."
