CHEEKTOWAGA, N.Y. — ​The Cheektowaga Police Department has some advice to make sure your holiday shopping experience at the Walden Galleria is safe.

They remind you that parked cars should be locked at all times.

Inside your car, don’t leave bags, purses, wallets or packages viable or unattended. If you carry your purse, keep it close to your body.

If you’re opting for a wallet instead, keep it in your front pocket or in a coat pocket.

And if you see anything suspicious while shopping, let mall security know about it.

The Galleria reminds you after 4p.m. on Friday and Saturdays, kids under the age of 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
