Attorney General Moody Issues Safety Tips to Avoid Crime in Wake of National Crime Prevention Month
Published at : October 11, 2021
I’m Florida Attorney General Ashley Moody.
October is National Crime Prevention Month.
Preventing crime is not just a job for law enforcement, it is incumbent on each of us as responsible citizens to take steps to increase public safety.
While Florida is enjoying a crime rate that has fallen for 50 straight years, nationally, we are seeing lawlessness on the rise—especially in major cities.
National Crime Prevention Month is a great time to reexamine the precautions you are taking to protect yourself, your family and your neighbors from falling victim to crime.
Some simple steps to prevent crime include:
·Avoid walking alone when it is dark outside;
·Always lock your home and vehicles;
·Never carry or display large amounts of cash or expensive items in public; and
·Call 911 if you spot suspicious activity.

By working together to prevent crime, we can build a Stronger, Safer Florida.
