The city of Montreal\u2019s police department (SPVM) released a statement noting heightened vigilance is necessary due to an increase in residential break-ins happening within West Island communities, notably the municipalities covered by Station 1 situated in Kirkland. <\/p>\n

SPVM provided some safety precautions for residents that include ensuring that thieves cannot easily access the second story of a home via a left out ladder or unlocked storage shed, locking doors and windows even if the owners only leave for a few minutes, encoding valuables with an etcher machine that is available through your neighbourhood police station and even getting a home alarm system with motion detectors.<\/p>\n

Station 5 Commander Mohamed Bhoudid told The Suburban<\/i> that unfortunately, break-ins \u201care a fairly normal occurrence but we have not faced a spike like other stations.\u201d <\/p>\n

Bhoudid also explained that often an increase in residential break-ins in a specific neighbourhood or community could be caused by \u201ca particular group who increase the stats and then once are caught after intensive period of activity, levels resume to normal.\u201d<\/p>\n

At Station 1, that includes Senneville, Baie d\u2019Urfe, Ste. Anne de Bellevue, Beaconsfield and Kirkland, there was a substantial increase in break-ins during the month of October. <\/p>\n

\u201cWe put in place a task force and sent our officers to door to door to give info pamphlets and to visit all residences that go broken into in the affected areas,\u201d Commander Richard Thouin told The Suburban.<\/i><\/p>\n

\u201cSince November, we have only two break-ins to report, one in Baie d\u2019Urfe and one in Kirkland,\u201d said Thouin. \u201cWe will continue with this strategy as the Christmas season tends to increase the number of break-ins usually.\u201d<\/p>\n

Thouin said that witnesses who have come forward observed that would be thieves would knock on doors during day light hours and if no one was home, they would then try to gain access to the domicile by the back entrance or by gaining entry to the second floor. <\/p>\n

If the would be thieves had someone answer the door, \u201cthe homeowners would get distracted answers from the subject so if anyone sees this kind of behaviour, call 911.\u201d
