Vegas Cops Boost Security for ShoppersThe (LVMPD) will boost its presence with the start of the holiday shopping season.
The increased enforcement began on Thanksgiving weekend and will continue through December, and officers will be on patrol in shopping centers and other popular retail locations. Some of the locations where more officers will be patrolling include Target, Walmart, and the Las Vegas North Premium Outlets, according to police.
Some officers will be in uniforms while others will be undercover. LVMPD drones will also be used in the stepped-up patrol.
“During the holidays, generally, from Thanksgiving to the end of the year, we see an influx in theft at retail markets, LVMPD Captain Johnathan Riddle recently told Las Vegas TV station KTNV. “The mere presence of them being there we expect that to push the criminals elsewhere off the property where there might traditionally be crimes of opportunity.”
Shoppers can take some precautions, too, police advised. These include placing purchased merchandise in a trunk or inside the vehicle where it can’t be seen by passersby. One other precaution is driving home and unloading the car between shopping stops.
Criminals are looking for an opportunity where someone is not paying attention, so just be paying attention,” Riddle said.
