Together We
C - Stop Crime
A - Increase Awareness for Safety
N - Improve our Neighborhood
Since April 2007, we have seen a substantial increase in the level of crime being committed throughout our community. There have been numerous reports of property vandalism, vehicle break-ins, and graffiti. This crime has now ESCALATED to four homes being broken into and more significantly, two shootings that took place on September 25 and 26. Click here to view local flyer
The Carson Park Group has been in direct contact with Captain Dave Fender of the Lakewood Sheriff's office over the course of this escalation, requesting additional patrol services for our neighborhood. As residents, we must do our part and keep our eyes open and report any crime we see taking place immediately to the sheriff's office at (562) 866-9061.
Now more than ever, it is important for neighbors to come together and organize on each block to keep our community safe. If you are interested in neighborhood watch, becoming a block captain, or would just like more information on community safety, please contact:
