Take book before thief takes you
Almost anyone can be a thief.
This statement is the message of a 12-
page booklet prepared by the public safety
department.
"People who come to work here tend to
think Duke is a safe place," according to
Capt. A.B. Washington, senior command
officer of public safety for the medical
center. "But it's not, just about anyone
can be a thief."
Washington said the number of
incidents of crime are rising at the medical
center.
The brief orange booklet, entitled
"Crime Doesn't Pay," points out various
safety precautions that lots of people
know about, but apparently aren't
following.
The booklet was designed and
illustrated by Washington and Lt. Merle
Crittenton. Washington said the mother
of public safety director Tim Wheatley
helped with the illustrations.
Washington urges victims to report
crimes immediately to the public safety
department — 684-2444, or 911 for
emergencies.
"People should call us promptly when
they are victimized," Washington said.
"There is little we can do when someone
calls us two or three weeks after
something is stolen."
Copies of the booklet are on display and
available outside of the public safety
office, next to the Medical Center Board
Room (yellow zone, first floor).
