Owen Sound Police Service is marking Ontario Crime Prevention Week to ensure the city remains a safe and healthy place to live.
Constable Craig Peddle says police partnerships with community leaders, youth, businesses and government can help prevent crime.
Peddle points to the new Community Safety Mural in downtown Owen Sound that brought together volunteers, merchants, schools, students, the media and police.
Peddle says this year we have selected the theme C.R.I.M.E :
C “Community Partners”
R Reduction of Victimization
I Internet Safety, Bullying and Tips for Seniors
M Media partners in the community
E Everyone plays a role in crime prevention
