Patrol while running Prevent vacant nests in closed stores Hokkaido Date April 28 16:22

In order to prevent damage to burglary nests in the downtown area, which has been crowded in response to requests for leave, we started a patrol while running local running circles in Date City, Hokkaido.

While Hokkaido has asked restaurants such as bars to close their doors and ask them to refrain from going out, in the city of Date, there is growing concern that damage to burglar nests aimed at closed stores will increase in a busy downtown area. ..

Under such circumstances, a local running circle, which is usually watching over children, has begun to patrol while running in the downtown area.

On the 28th, after confirming the location of the shop closed by the representative of the circle with the guidance of the police and the restaurant association, check whether there is a suspicious person while running and whether there is a shop with a door opened confirmed.

About 70 members of the circle decide to patrol the downtown area while enjoying running.

Hiroshi Ona, the representative of the running circle "Guard Runners", said, "I want to cooperate with my efforts to prevent any damage to the burglary. I will run slowly while checking because it is for crime prevention."

Yoshihiro Tsujiura, the president of the Date Restaurant Association, said, "Because most of the bars and snacks in the city are closed, there are no people going in and out, which is very helpful."
