Kim was inside her home in Texas when she heard pounding on her front door. Feeling that something was off, she opted not to open it and waited the person out. When she went to see what the commotion was, a man was still standing outside. Frightened, she ensured he was gone before opening her door. When she did, she found a rubber band around the handle, which law enforcement says is to ensure that the burglar can force their way into your home without having to wait for your to completely open the door.

While spreading the word of these types of practices is a good way to keep people safe, we must still be diligent in practicing good habits to ensure that we aren’t targets.
