Crime Alert: Tailgate Theft
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
For all truck owners, please be aware of the tailgate thefts on the rise. Tailgates are very easy to steal takes about 10 seconds to detach. Although the SEA #20 clamp can help prevent this theft, check your truck if have one or you can purchase one. Also parking your truck front facing towards the driveway back end facing towards home. Whenever possible, park your vehicle in the your garage to help prevent tailgate theft. Check and secure your lighting system outside your home, this is a major deterrent for crime in general. Reporting any suspicious activity in your neighborhood can also keep the bad guys away.
