Home is where we all seek safety and privacy. Many install surveillance cameras to protect their homes, but thieves keep innovating. Kim Fleming Cernigliaro from Texas shared a story to raise awareness about a new break-in method.
When someone knocked loudly, Kim wisely refrained from opening the door. After the knocker left, she found a rubber band on the handle. Police revealed this unusual trick: “When a person answers the door and takes the latch off to open it, the rubber band stays in place.” This prevents the door from closing and locking. Kim now warns others to be cautious when opening their doors to strangers.
In the quest for safety, it’s essential to stay vigilant and informed about these evolving tactics. As Kim’s experience illustrates, a little knowledge can go a long way in safeguarding your home.
