Security Patrol in Grant Park Atlanta

We are so thankful to all GPSP’s ( Grant Park Security Patrol) new and continuing members, the patrol has been to make a real difference over the past few weeks in terms of decreasing the number of burglaries and other crimes in the neighborhood. GPSP’s Atlanta police department officers have been out and about 40 hours a week, and it has paid off. For instance, during one patrol, a GPSP officer stopped two juveniles who were acting suspiciously, and one has since admitted to a December burglary in Grant Park.

But, however we should not become complacent. The warm weather and school holidays always bring their own round of criminal activities, so remember to take all the usual precautions; close and lock windows and doors when you are not around, do not leave yard tools unattended where they can be seen, and as always remove items of value from your vehicle, and protect it with an alarm or club. (Hondas are a particular favorite among car thieves right now).
