Residents are reminded to be vigilant for suspicious individuals in their neighbourhoods and to secure their homes by ensuring all windows and doors are locked before leaving their property unattended.
Air conditioning units should also be secured and it is recommended that all valuables are kept in a safe or safety deposit box if possible.
In addition, residents are strongly advised to take pictures of all their valuables and record serial numbers of all electronic goods. In the event that any personal property is stolen and later recovered, these items can be more easily identified.
