House Checks
The Medina Police Department offers house checks to those who request them. If you are going on a long or short-term vacation, the Medina Police Department will provide you with a house check for no charge. House checks are intended to provide a sense of security when away from home. If a house check is requested, an officer will respond to your home and will check the outside doors to make sure they are secure. If you would like a house check on your home, please contact the Medina Police Department at (763) 473-9209.

Crime Opportunity Alert
The Medina Police Department has implemented a crime prevention program to enhance the safety and security of local residences and businesses. While on routine patrol, if a police officer has identified a condition which was an opportunity for criminal activity to occur, you will receive a Crime Opportunity Alert. This is a yellow card that will describe the condition that may have become an opportunity for a crime. Crime conditions include an open garage door in the middle of the night or a car window wide open in a business area with valuables inside the vehicle.
