Halloween tips for trick-or-treaters and homeowners in Regina: RPS [Video]

Halloween has arrived, which means the streets of Regina will soon be filled with ghouls, ghosts and other scary creatures.

To make sure everyone who is planning to trick-or-treat stays safe, the Regina Police Service (RPS) has offered some tips before kids head out.

RPS recommends trick-or-treaters add bright elements to their costumes by using reflective tape or carrying a flashlight. Kids are also advised to stay in familiar neighbourhoods and make a pre-planned route to share with a parent or guardian before they start.

As cars may not be able to see kids in the dark, RPS advises people to walk on the sidewalks, stay on well-lit streets, and cross the street at designated crosswalks.

RPS also advises trick-or-treaters to only go to homes with their outdoor lights on.
