The Sheriff's Office tips

  • Don't go alone. "Don't trick-or-treat alone. Stay with a group or an adult."
  • Stay in the light. "Stick to well-lit streets and sidewalks."
  • Cross carefully. "Cross streets at corners and always look both ways."
  • Check the treats. "Parents, be sure to check candy before your little ghouls and goblins dig in!"

Have a safe and happy Halloween. Those are the facts, directly from the source.
