🎃 Halloween Safety Tips from the Cullman Police Department 👻 As our community gets ready for a fun night of trick-or-treating, the Cullman Police Department wants everyone to have a safe and enjoyable Halloween! Please keep these safety reminders in mind: For Parents and Trick-or-Treaters: • Walk on sidewalks whenever possible and cross streets at corners or crosswalks. • Make sure costumes are visible at night—add reflective tape or carry glow sticks or flashlights. • Never enter a stranger’s home or vehicle for candy. • Young children should always be accompanied by an adult. • Remind older children to travel in groups and stay in well-lit areas. • Check all candy before eating—discard anything that looks suspicious or unwrapped. For Drivers: • Slow down and be alert in residential neighborhoods. • Enter and exit driveways carefully. • Watch for children crossing streets or darting out between parked cars. • Avoid distracted driving—put down the phone and stay focused. For Homeowners: • Keep your porch and walkway well-lit for trick-or-treaters. • Secure pets inside to prevent accidents or scares. The Cullman Police Department wishes everyone a safe, fun, and spooky Halloween! 🎃👮‍♂️
