After Thanksgiving is over and the leftovers run out, the next holiday the children begin to look forward to is Christmas! However, children aren’t the only ones looking forward to the holiday season, when large amounts of people scurry to the shopping malls and Towne Center to buy gifts. Thieves also look forward to the Christmas shopping time when they can fit into large crowds in parking lots and look for opportunities for an easy crime.... The Logan Township Police Department reminds you to lock your car doors. Place belongings in the trunk, out of sight so your vehicle is not easily targeted. Have a Happy Holiday!
