Mentor Police are ready to fight theft this holiday season.
According to Mentor Police Department’s Retail Theft Deterrence Program, they are able to make quick arrests when these thefts occur.
“We continue to support this program because of the positive effect it has on deterring criminal activity in our retail locations and making the community a safer place to shop,” said Mentor Police Chief Ken Gunsch.The initiative was developed in 2014 by a Mentor officer who recognized the correlation between theft rings and drug abuse, according to a press release from the city.
Officials said thieves will typically steal high-value items that they can flip quickly to feed their habit.
