Avoid Vehicle Break-Ins: Lock it or Lose it!

As a common practice:

• Always secure your vehicle.

• Park cars in your driveway rather than on the street.

• Park your cars inside your garage at night.

• Never leave your vehicle unattended while the engine is running.

• Remove any items of value from your car or lock them in the trunk.

• Activate your car alarm

• Take your garage door opener in the house if you are not parking in your garage overnight.

Please report crimes immediately as well as any suspicious activity to the Sheriff's Office non-emergency dispatch at 813-247-8200. For emergencies, please dial 9-1-1. Be Safe!

Neighborhood Watch is back!

We launched our Neighborhood Watch Program for Magdalene Grove in May.  The Program involves citizen participation in crime prevention: being aware and alert and reporting suspicious activity to the Sheriff’s Office. 

For Reporting to Sheriff’s Office:
For Emergencies . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 911
For Non-Emergencies . . . . . 813-247-8200

Block Captains have taken on the task of contacting you to verify information for our directory as well as adding any safety measures you have taken (RING doorbells, cameras, lights, etc.).   Our list is not complete and is a “work in progress,” so if you have not been contacted as yet, please reach out to your Block Captain or Vickie (813-917-8354).  The complete list of Block Captains was listed in the last Newsletter.
