Baltimore County, MD – As Halloween nears, the Baltimore County Police Department is reminding families to prioritize safety while trick-or-treating and to consider attending supervised community events.
According to the Baltimore County Police Department, officers will host a series of sponsored trick-or-treat events across multiple precincts between October 19 and October 30, 2025, offering a secure alternative to traditional door-to-door activities.
Police urge residents handing out candy to turn on outside lights and remove hazards from yards. Parents are advised to have children trick-or-treat in groups, wear reflective gear, and avoid unlit homes. Officers also encourage caregivers to check all candy before it’s eaten.
Motorists are reminded to watch for children crossing streets and drive cautiously through neighborhoods.
