Police start the campaign weekend: Burglary protection for Ennepe-Ruhr!

In the Ennepe-Ruhr district, the police decided to actively educate the population about the growing problem of burglary. The current statistics show an alarming increase in burglary in 2023/2024, which is reason enough to take preventive measures to sensitize the citizens.

The main goal of this initiative is to present people simple and effective security measures that they can take for themselves to better protect their living space. The police also want to increase the vigilance of the population towards suspicious activities. This will happen through various information events that will take place in the coming days.

The following day, October 26, 2024, another information stand will be set up at the Gevelsberg weekly market between 10:00 and 1:00 p.m. The market offers a good platform to talk to one public and spread prevention tips.
