RCMP in Nova Scotia are reminding people to take caution and protect themselves from “the Grinch” this holiday season.
Police are reminding people that if you have to leave holiday gifts in your vehicle, make sure to keep them out of plain sight – lock them in the trunk or hide them. Officers are also encouraging people to park in well-lit areas at night.
“It’s that time of year when Grinches gear up to steal holiday presents,” said Cpl. Dal Hutchinson in a news release.
At home, you’re reminded to lock all windows and doors in your home. If you plan to set up a Christmas tree, make sure it is not visible from outside.
RCMP are also encouraging people to refrain from putting gifts under your tree until Christmas Eve.
Anyone who witnesses thefts this holiday season is asked to contact police or Crime Stoppers.
