DETALLES:

The Oxnard Police Department Property Crimes Unit would like to inform the residents and business owners of Oxnard that there have been eight (8) commercial burglaries between April 23, 2017 y abril 26, 2017. These particular commercial burglaries are set apart by the fact that the burglars are targeting cash registers and safes located inside the businesses. Force was used to gain entry to all of the businesses and the burglaries have been taking place during the late hours of the night to early hours of the morning.

This information is not being disseminated to alarm the business owners of Oxnard but to inform and prepare them to take precautions after-hours.

During these investigations, it has come to the attention of the Property Crimes Unit that it is common practice for some businesses to leave cash in the till for business use the next day. Please be cognizant that while it may seem more efficient, it does leave your business open to being a target for crime. The Property Crimes Unit encourages you to consider the following tips to help your business avoid becoming a victim of crime.

  • Remove all currency on-site and deposit it at your preferred financial institution.
  • Leave the cash drawer open and empty after-hours.
  • After-hours, if possible and your register is located close to windows, remove the cash register altogether and store in a safe, locked area.
  • Consider purchasing and installing a surveillance system with cameras both in front and to the rear of your business (make sure it has the ability to record clear images at night).
  • Test alarm and surveillance systems for functionality when you test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors.

The Oxnard Police Department’s Property Crimes Unit, in its ongoing crime prevention efforts, would like to advise business owners that security assessments, crime prevention for businesses information and training are available by request. If you are interested in receiving further information, please contact Det. Crystal Walker at (805) 385-7668 or crystal.walker@oxnardpd.org.

Help keep Oxnard crime free and safe. If you see suspicious activity, please report to the Oxnard Police Department at (805) 385–7740 o marque 9-1-1. Anonymous information and tips can also be made with the Ventura County Crimestoppers at (805) 385–8255.
