(Beaver Falls, Pa.) The City of Beaver Falls Police Department issued a statement in coordination with City Council and Mayor Kenya Johns via their Facebook Page last night advising residents to take precautions in their home security.
The release said that due to recent reports of unknown subjects loitering around residential homes after dark and during the  late night hours residents are reminded to secure their windows and doors at night and to utilize available lighting to illuminate areas around homes. Bever Falls Police told residents that lighting is helpful in deterring subjects that may be acting with criminal intent. Lighting also helps assist officers on patrol in detecting these subjects.
The Department said in the release that the best ways to protect yourself is secure all doors and windows. Utilize available lighting around the exterior of your home, and keep your curtains and blinds closed at night.
Beaver Falls Police are requesting if you see any suspicious activity to contact their department by dialing 911 and for non Emergencies call 724-846-7101
