July Marks National Vehicle Theft Prevention Month - LKW

The Lakewood Police Department partners with the Washington Auto Theft Prevention Authority (WATPA) to raise awareness of vehicle theft and to provide personnel resources.

The summer months historically see the highest rates of vehicle theft, and July is recognized as National Vehicle Theft Prevention Month.  

WATPA’s annual awareness campaign is designed to educate the public on simple but effective steps they can take to secure their vehicles, protect their valuables, and reduce their risk of becoming a victim of auto theft.

We look forward to sharing additional content on these topics with you in July from our partners at WATPA.
