Denver Police advise that porch pirates are still at work even after holidays have passed.  With more people shopping online, this has become a year long issue.  DPD suggests that all neighborhoods institute Neighborhood Watch programs to help curb this issue.

Contact your police district’s Community Resource Officer to inform them about your intent to start a new watch program. Download the Neighborhood Watch Booklet  and a Property Inventory Record to record your valuable possessions.

Pups on Patrol is a program to help train civilian pups how to spot danger. Modeled after the National Dog Walker Watch program that encourages neighbors to assist local law enforcement as extra eyes and ears while out walking their dog, the program enhances the partnership between police and community, so neighbors can be more aware and learn how to effectively observe and report suspicious activity.
