Police Mobile Storefront Open
- Share via
The Camarillo Police Department’s first mobile storefront will open shop for the second time today at the Camarillo Village Square Shopping Center.
Officers will provide fingerprinting services for children and register bicycles.
Camarillo requires that bicycles be registered because police say it helps them find stolen bikes. There is a $5 fee for registration and a $3 fee for license renewal.
About 550 people attended the opening of the mobile storefront June 7, and about 300 children were fingerprinted.
Members of the Camarillo Citizens Patrol, who will soon receive marked cars and department uniforms, and the Disaster Assistance Response Team will provide information on disaster preparedness and on volunteer programs that assist law enforcement.
Teens can find out from the Law Enforcement Explorers what programs they can join to assist in keeping Camarillo clean and safe.
McGruff the Crime Dog will also be on hand to discuss crime and hand out coloring books.
An officer will provide information on crime prevention, the Camarillo Police Citizen Academy and the National Night Out on Aug. 5, when all Neighborhood Watch programs will have block parties.
Vice Mayor Charlotte Craven will attend from 1 to 2 p.m.
The mobile storefront will be open from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. at the Camarillo Village Square Shopping Center at Arneill and Las Posas roads.
