Homeless in the Valley

More than 2700 people are living on the streets in the Phoenix Valley. This locksmith noticed Tempe Vice Mayor, Shauna Ellis, along with other Maricopa government, had reduced their homeless numbers from last year. Very often, in the news I notice that criminals involved in commercial thefts such as shoplifting and armed robbery or assault are indeed vagrants.  This is a sad state, but more than that..you should make sure you are properly securing your homes and businesses.  Call a trusted locksmith service for Tempe,  Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, scottsdale or Phoenix.

Locksmith Advice for Tempe

One of my past clients phoned in today regarding an unfortunate event.  Seems one of his problematic teenage relatives went down the bad road again. The road that led unfortunately… to his house.  The teenager broke into the garage through the side door to steal a car and then the car ran out of gas and he was arrested.  This garage side door  I previously suggested he should guard.  He called to say…I should have listened to you and spent the money then on the guards.  He got in exactly as you said someone could.  So, it’s not the ringing of my bell situation that I write this it’s the…listen to your Tempe locksmith.  Good advice is out there.  Good locksmith advice from a REPUTABLE locksmith in Tempe.  Please, upgrade your mechanical home security.

Mesa boy dies from shooting. Is shot by his 17 year old friend.

According to Maricopa records, just this past week, a 17-year-old boy was charged in the shooting death of his 18-year-old friend, a young Mesa, AZ resident.  The shooter was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the incident.

The 17 year old shooter got the 9 mm handgun at his father’s house in Chandler and accidentally pulled the trigger and shot Jeremy Reed, in the head.

The Mesa boy was a talented ceramic artist at Mountain View High School in Mesa.   The shooter, tried to make up a story about an attempted burglary, but later confessed to the killing.

This tragedy could have been avoided if the shooter never had access to his father’s guns.  This Mesa locksmith grew up with guns.  This locksmith also believes that if you even think for a second that one of your kids is not yet a responsible young adult, LOCK UP YOUR GUNS.  There are many  different types of safes for this purpose.   There are also other options for your home.  ANY option is better then to see this type of tragedy.  Contact an ASAP Lock & Security locksmith to talk about options for your home.
