#YRP: 🚨Please show this to your parents and grandparents. Ever heard that saying about a wolf in sheep’s clothes? Well that’s how distraction thefts work. Criminals are taking advantage of people’s trust - especially vulnerable people, including seniors. Protect yourselves by: • Being cautious of strangers engaging you in public. • Being wary of friendly individuals that are getting too close. • Keeping your valuables secure and out of sight. • Reporting distraction thefts if you witness or fall victim to them P.S. Don’t be rude to strangers! But be wary of those that are trying to get into your personal space.

Safety warning: CCTV footage shows an armed suspect robbing a woman walking alone in the street. Incidents like this are a reminder that criminals often target people they believe are vulnerable or distracted. Always stay alert, avoid walking alone where possible, especially in quiet areas or after dark, and remain aware of your surroundings. Keep valuables out of sight, avoid using your phone while walking, and trust your instincts if something feels wrong. If you sense danger, move quickly to a busy, well-lit area or seek help immediately. Personal safety should always come first- no belongings are worth risking your life over.

If you want to learn how to break ankles, you have to learn how to shift the weight of your defender, and usually, you have to shift it twice! You’re going to have to make your moves at the right distance and use double jabs! If you make your move too close you’ll get jammed, if you make it too far away, your guy will recover. When you jab one way and go, it can work, but most good defenders can recover from one jab. However, when you double jab, defenders bite hard on the second move and can’t recover from their recovery! Learning to jab with your stutters, skips, your head and shoulders, and even your stick will allow you to shift your defender’s weight! Last, change your angle of approach! The hardest way to beat your guy is straight at him, if you angle left or right then attack you’ll get a natural shade advantage that will open up an opportunity!

Motorists are being urged to remain alert at petrol filling stations following more reports of theft. In this incident a few weeks ago, a cellphone was stolen. The victim said the phone was stolen while it was placed on the lap and “not even visible to the eye”, suggesting the suspects may have been closely monitoring the victim before striking. Safety tips for motorists at petrol stations: • Keep phones, wallets and handbags out of sight at all times. • Avoid placing valuables on your lap, passenger seat or dashboard. • Lock your doors when attendants are not assisting you. • Stay aware of people approaching your vehicle unnecessarily. • Be cautious of distractions, as suspects often work in groups. • If using your phone for payments or directions, put it away immediately afterwards. • Report suspicious behaviour to petrol station management and SAPS. • Where possible, use filling stations with visible security presence and CCTV monitoring. Motorists are reminded that criminals often target busy petrol stations and shopping areas where drivers may be distracted.

She’s in the front seat holding her cute lemon-print tumbler, trying to film a fun promotion video for her cup. Her husband (off camera) starts shooting her down, saying she’ll never make it on TikTok and never make any money from it. She turns to him and says, “You have no faith in me” — all while their kids are in the back seat watching the whole exchange. Your partner should be your biggest cheerleader, even when they don’t fully understand or agree with your dream yet. It can feel incredibly hurtful when the person you love most doesn’t seem to have your back in those moments. Have you ever been excited about something you were building only to be met with doubt from your partner or someone close to you?

With the recent shopping rush, we’ve started to see pickpockets active in our community again. Last year, between mid-November and early January, Halton Police received 110 reports of phone thefts targeting shoppers — a reminder of how quickly these crimes can happen. This video shows how pickpockets work: they often operate in groups, blend into busy areas like malls and community events, and use distractions to steal phones, wallets, and other valuables without being noticed. Protect yourself: • Keep your phone and wallet in your front pockets. • Don’t store all valuables in one place. • Avoid distractions such as earbuds. • Never set your items down, even for a moment. If you discover something missing, please report it to our non-emergency line: 905-825-4777. Stay alert and stay safe.
