The Pitt County Sheriff’s Office
wants to recommend some safety
tips for when you go on vacation
this summer.
When you leave your home for
vacation, make sure to use lights
on a timer, stop your mail and
newspapers. Also have a neighbor
keep an eye on your place.
You can also request the Sheriff’s
Office to conduct a residential
security check, while you're gone.
If you would like to set up a
residential security check, call us
at 902-2800.
Have a great vacation and with
these safety tips – YOU WILL!
