After four cars were broken into within two weeks, police are concerned about recent vehicle break-ins near TCU, said J.C. Williams, assistant chief of TCU Police. TCU Police recommends that students use security measures like this on their cars to help deter would-be criminal activity. Williams said students frequently leave phones, pagers, backpacks, wallets and purses in places where they can be seen easily.
Burglars are very selective in the things they steal.
They have a keen eye to get the valuable items. Williams said the police department is doing a good job protecting cars on campus parking lots. He said officers are encouraged to watch for suspicious people around campus parking lots, especially near West Berry Street. Ross Dix, a freshman premajor, said TCU Police is not doing enough to keep students' cars safe. They should realize that we have expensive cars and valuables.
