Something good happens when fire prevention and crime prevention collide.

North County Fire and the Sheriff's Department teamed to help a couple with a home off Reche Road with residential security. They have a large property with various fruit trees that they are not able to tend to and were concerned for residential safety.

"They heard our department offers complimentary home security consultations," said Heather Mitchell, crime prevention specialist. "I reached out to my fellow crime prevention specialists at our sister stations at San Marcos and Vista Sheriff's stations, our senior volunteers, as well as our community partners at North County Fire. We were able to go to the residence and assist by cleaning up some of the fruit to reduce the theft/trespassing risk."

Lars Beeghley, fire prevention specialist with North County Fire, also met with the couple to discuss fire risk reduction.
