We should keep in mind that the potential for crime does exist and each of us should assume personal responsibility by taking precautions to prevent ourselves from becoming victims of crime. To prevent similar crimes from occurring, please make sure that you lock your office when not in use, secure your property in locked desks and cabinets and call x7777 immediately if you observe suspicious behavior.
