DELAWARE — The Delaware Natural Resources Police are reminding visitors to state parks to take simple precautions to protect their vehicles and belongings while enjoying outdoor recreation. In a post shared on the agency’s official Facebook page, the State Parks Unit provided guidance on reducing the risk of vehicle break-ins. Officials recommend that visitors lock their vehicles, take their keys, and ensure all windows are fully closed. Valuables such as wallets, cell phones, purses, backpacks, and packages should be taken along or stored out of sight, preferably in the trunk. Visitors are also encouraged to stay aware of their surroundings and report any suspicious activity to 911. Early reporting can help law enforcement respond quickly and keep parks safe for everyone.
The State Parks Unit regularly provides safety resources and information to enhance visitors’ experiences. More details about vehicle safety and other tips are available on the Delaware Natural Resources Police website at https://dnrec.delaware.gov/nrp/state-park-unit.
