BE ON THE LOOKOUT! On 10/31/24 at 12:00am Officer Tommy Lewis responded to a call for a person screaming behind the mini station. Under the south street moon, the officer was bit by an unknown carnivorous creature. Officer Mel Brooks rushed to the aid of his partner to discover that his eyes became a bright yellow green and his bones began to rip through his now fur-covered skin. Officer Tommy Lewis was last scene roaming the street with pointy ears, a long snout, sharp fangs and a bushy tail. If you see him approach with caution!! He will feed you candy!! Happy Halloween! 🐺 🌙 #Halloween #Phillypd #PhillyPolice #Werewolf #communitypolicing

⬆️ DON’T BE A CLOWN 🤡 THIS HALLOWEEN! DRIVE SOBER OR GET PULLED OVER!!!! In 2022, 39% of fatal car crashes on Halloween in the United States involved drunk drivers, according to the latest data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA). 👉Plan Ahead and Never Drive Impaired: If you plan to drink on Halloween, make a plan and do not get behind the wheel of a car or any recreational vehicle, including bikes, golf carts, or ATVs. 👉Report Impaired Drivers Immediately: If you see a suspected impaired driver, alert law enforcement right away. With children and pedestrians flooding the streets, there’s no margin for error. #HalloweenSafety #PhillyPolice #PhillyPD #Safety #DUI #Halloween #drunkdriving

Halloween Safety Tips to share with the kids! 👇 👇 👇 🎃 Stay in groups! Don’t trick or treat alone! 👻 Look both ways when crossing the street! 🦇 Avoid dark houses or areas! 👹 Carry a flash light or a light stick so you are visible- or consider wearing reflective clothing 🧛‍♀️Make-up is better than a mask because it allows you to see clearly! 🍫 Don’t eat any unwrapped candy or treats! 💀 Call 9-1-1 🚓 if you think you or someone else may be in danger! Have fun and be safe! #PhillyPolice #PhillyPD #Safety #halloweensafety #Community #TrickORTreat

The Friends’ goal is to enhance the quality of life and economic viability of our neighborhoods, by raising the level of public safety through police-community vigilance and through law enforcement, to reduce the incidents of crime and increase the citizens’ sense of security. Through the Friends, we support a common goal of safety and security through cooperation. #Community #PhillyPD #PhillyPolice #SouthstreetPHL

South Street officers walked the neighborhood with interns from Penn State Abington and the Community College of Philadelphia’s Criminal Justice Program and distributed crime prevention flyers. They also checked in on a few local businesses!

Sunday night, another illegal (unregistered) bike was removed from the streets by police. These three wheeled motorcycles are street legal but just like a car or a regular motorcycle they must be registered and you must have a drivers license to operate them! #Slingshot #Motorcycle #southstreet #PhillyPD #PhillyPolice

We remember and honor those who gave the ultimate sacrifice. 🇺🇸 #MemorialDay

Three illegal bike confiscations on South Street Saturday night. Fines issued. One driver arrested for an outstanding warrant. The message from the @phillypolice is clear.

Dirt bikes and ATV’s are not allowed on Philadelphia streets or sidewalks! These bikes operate recklessly and are a major nuisance to businesses and the community! #SouthStreet #PhillyPD #PhillyPolice #PhillyPD

“During weekends, decisions on the barricades will be made on a nightly basis, Lt. Ricci said. This weekend, he plans on monitoring the holiday crowds, and any nuisance behavior before making a call, he said.

On 4/24 after 12:00am a carjacking attempt occurred on the 600 block of Passyunk Avenue. The victim was able to get away and the suspect fled. Please follow these safety tips: ~Be aware of carjacking hotspots like areas with poor lighting or around ATM’s. ~keep in mind that you are more vulnerable when you are getting in an out of your vehicle or when you are stopped at a red light. Always be aware of your surroundings! ~Park in well lit areas. ~Drive with windows and doors locked , especially late at night! ~Leave a space between your vehicle and the car in front of you incase you need to pull away. ~Avoid texting or distractions when you are parked or stopped and inside of your vehicle! ~Watch out for the “bump & run” - where a carjacker bumps your vehicle on purpose so that you get out to exchange information or access your vehicles damage. (if in an auto accident that seems suspicious you can call 911, put your flashers on, and drive to a safe, well it space or a police station) #CrimePrevention #PhillyPD #PhillyPolice #Crime #Carjacking
