With the weather warming up, the Cornelius Police Department urges residents to get in the HABIT, an acronym for Halt Auto Break Ins Today. Here's what you can do:

• Always lock vehicle doors and roll up windows.

• Try to park in well-lighted areas.

• Do not leave anything of value in your vehicle.

• Take items with you or lock them in your trunk.

Dial 911 to report suspicious activity to the police.
