Crime Prevention:Unaware Citizen of the Day #4: Man Inflating Tire At Gas Station

During my travels, I encounter people who are unaware of their surroundings in public. Unaware citizens are prime targets for an attack by a predator.

As a Firearms Instructor, I'll be the first to tell you that there is more to the field of personal protection than carrying a firearm.

In fact, I'll go record to say that "awareness" is paramount in your goal of staying safe. Predators like easy targets, so keep your head on a swivel.

Today's entry features an oblivious man inflating a tire on a vehicle in an gas station lot - a dangerous place to be. Unaware targets attract predators.

Michigan Personal Protection Tips: Beware of Sliders

Michigan Personal Protection Tips - Beware of Sliders.

A new crime focusing on unaware women at gas stations is becoming increasingly popular across both metro-Detroit and the nation.

Sliding occurs when a bad guy positions his vehicle opposite the unsuspecting victim's car to shield his furtive actions from view of others. While shielded, the bad guy "slides" out of his car and gains entry to the other car to steal valuables, often contained in a purse.

A slider, if he wanted, could also hide in the back seat area of the victim's car and commit far more heinous crimes such as kidnapping, carjacking, and rape. To guard against sliding, citizens should be aware of their surroundings especially while at a gas station and be sure to keep their vehicle doors locked while they are dispensing fuel into their gas tanks.

Michigan Personal Protection Tip: Beware of "Apple Pickers"

Michigan Personal Protection Tips - Beware of Apple Pickers.

The Detroit Police Department recently issued a press release warning its residents to be aware of a growing trend locally and across the country - Apple Picking.

Apple Picking is a form of robbery that occurs when a predator spots a distracted citizen operating a high-end cell phone - like an Apple I-Phone - and literally rips it out of his hand and runs away from the scene. Some of these robberies involve physical force, the threat of force, and the use of weapons.

As such, citizens would be well advised to be aware of their surroundings and to avoid using expensive cell phones in public. Another strategy would include not buying and not using expensive cell phones; an inexpensive and unpopular communications device may help avoid drawing the attention of bad guys.
