Laredo Police and Michael Myers Team Up for Halloween Safety Tips

Halloween is just around the corner, and while most of us are looking forward to costumes, candy, and spooky fun, it's important to remember that safety should always be top of mind. This year, the Laredo Police Department is taking a unique approach to spreading the word about safe Halloween practices, partnering with the iconic horror character, Michael Myers.

Yes, you read that right! While Michael Myers may be known for his chilling presence in the Halloween franchise, he's also lending his voice to a campaign aimed at keeping Laredo residents safe during the holiday.

Safety Tips from the Master of Halloween:

Michael Myers and the Laredo Police Department are urging everyone to follow these safety tips:

• Trick-or-Treat in Well-Lit Areas: Stay in familiar neighborhoods and stick to well-lit streets.
• Travel in Groups: Always trick-or-treat with a friend or family member.
• Be Visible: Wear reflective clothing or carry a flashlight to make yourself visible to drivers.
• Cross the Street Safely: Look both ways before crossing the street, and always use crosswalks whenever possible.
• Inspect Treats Before Eating: Parents should check all candy before children consume it. Dispose of any candy that looks unusual, damaged, or unwrapped.
• Be Aware of Your Surroundings: Stay alert and aware of your surroundings, especially when walking alone.
• Don't Enter Homes: Avoid entering homes unless you are with a trusted adult.
• Report Suspicious Activity: If you see anything suspicious, report it to the police immediately.

The Laredo Police Department recognizes that Halloween is often associated with fear, making Michael Myers a surprisingly fitting spokesperson. By using a familiar Halloween icon to deliver safety messages, they aim to make the message resonate with both children and adults.

This unique partnership not only brings humor and attention to the campaign but also creates a memorable experience for residents. By tapping into popular culture, the Laredo Police Department is demonstrating its commitment to engaging the community and ensuring that Halloween is a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone.
