The Pearland Police Department offers these tips to help keep citizens from becoming a victim of a car burglary.

• LOCK YOUR CAR
• At home or on the road, keep valuables out of plain sight
• Secure purses, computers, GPS systems, radar detectors, mp3 players, etc in the home or in the trunk
• Bags, briefcases or backpacks make tempting targets for car burglars; don't leave them in the car. 
• Don't trust that window tint will keep your valuables hidden

Taking the time to secure your valuables will keep you from becoming a victim.  In the neighborhoods or out on the road, report suspicious activity to the Pearland Police Department at 281.997.4100.
