Chief O’Brien, wants to remind residents who will be away from home for vacation to make use of the Police Department House Check Program.  Simply contact the Police Dispatcher to relay relevant information and your house will be checked three shifts daily by Officers during your absence.  At the very least please cancel your mail and newspaper deliveries.  Piled up mail and newspapers are an invitation to thieves to take advantage of the circumstances.

Be aware of any suspicious activity and report it to the Police right away. If you like to receive information about Menands Neighborhood Watch Please Email: Menands Police Department at email hidden; JavaScript is required.
