imagesHalloween is just a few days away and local law enforcement is reminding people to enjoy the holiday in a safe way.

Here are a few safety tips:

  • Torrance Police say it’s a good idea to carry flashlights, so drivers can see you.
  • Always use marked crosswalks and corners where it is safe. Always look left, right then left again before crossing.
  • Stick to familiar and well-lit routes and carry a cell phone in case of an emergency.
  • Drivers should slow down, be patient and extra vigilant of everyone.
  • Always examine your candy before eating it.

If there is an emergency, call 911. Torrance Police Department’s non-emergency line is 310-328-3456.
