The recent NNO Picnic was a great success in spreading the word about personal, family and neighborhood safety! Lakewood Heights is blessed with relatively few crime issues. BUT if even the smallest incident happens to you or your family ?– it becomes very significant ?…and understandably so! We take all crime very seriously! It is imperative that you know your neighbors, their cars, and their friends to help recognize questionable situations when you see them! Call 911 to report all crimes ?– no matter how small ?– and ANY SUSPICIOUS PERSONS OR BEHAVIOR!! Carry a cell phone on your walks or jogs in the neighborhood to report something if needed! JOIN LHNA and get on the NEIGHBOR EMAIL NETWORK to get current crime related email updates & to let us know !!
