Cell Phone Safety

cell with lock around it

  • Although you may feel more confident when you are talking on your phone or carrying your phone in your hand, the reality is that displaying your device could make you the target for a crime.
  • Walking and Talking or Texting is a distraction. Always be alert and aware of others and your surroundings.
  • Keep your phone out of sight so that no one can “snatch it” from you.
  • Locate Code Blue Emergency phones so you can contact the police if you need them.
  • Save the Temple Police number (215-204-1234) into your cell phone. Memorize the number so you can get assistance, even if you don’t have your phone.
