Vehicle Break-In Prevention Safety Tips
March 29, 2013
Increases in crimes such as vehicle break-ins often correspond with warming weather.
The University of Toledo Police Department and the Toledo Police Department are urging
students to take precautions to combat thefts from motor vehicles:
• Keep vehicle doors locked.
• Keep windows rolled-up.
• Leave nothing of value in your car.
• If you have to leave an item of value in your car, make sure it is not in view.
• Play music at a reasonable level. Loud music draws unnecessary attention to high-end
or upgraded stereo systems. Your vehicle will be targeted.
Please follow these tips and keep your property safe, whether on campus or off campus.
Be a responsible member of the community. If you see someone suspicious, or have information
on a crime, please report it to the police.
Any crime in progress:
Off campus 9-1-1
On campus 419.530.2600
Non-emergency: text 69050, keyword utpd
Remember: See it, hear it, report it!

Fund established for victim, daughter of UT police officer
By UT News Staff : March 28th, 2013 [UT News]
The thoughts and prayers of UT community members are with UT Police Officer Jeni Gerber,
whose daughter, Kaitlin, was shot and killed March 24.
A fund in Kaitlin’s name has been established to support the family at The University
of Toledo Federal Credit Union. Those with credit union accounts can call and transfer
money to the fund by phone. Those without accounts can bring cash to one of the credit
union’s three branches and ask that the amount be added to the fund.
The credit union branches are located at 5248 Hill Ave. in Toledo, Mulford Library
Room 013E on Health Science Campus, and Student Union Room 3019 on Main Campus. Phone
numbers and hours of operation are available at http://www.uoftfcu.com.
UT Police Chief Jeff Newton said the department has been quick to rally behind Jeni,
an officer at UT since 2000, and her family.
“Jeni is a strong community police officer, and I have seen how she loves working
with students and putting together educational programs,” Newton said. “This is a
heartbreaking moment, and we are all here to support her.”

person or persons to enter. Never let anyone into your suite who you do not know.

to commit crimes. Please report any suspicious incidents immediately to the University
