Origin of the Alcorcón Municipal Police force
The official creation of the Alcorcón Municipal Police was produced by agreement of the plenary session of the city council dated May 17, 1965, which called for the creation of an urban guard post. The inauguration took place on February 1, 1966. Since then, Alcorcón has had a bailiff, two municipal watchmen, an urban police watchman and two business and neighborhood watchmen for its safety.
The Alcorcón Municipal Police force has grown in accordance with the needs of the population and the functions that have been assumed in accordance with current regulations.

Security advice
- Teach your children to know their own name, last name, address and telephone number.
- Your children should always know that, in case of loss, it is best to stay stopped. Their parents or relatives, realizing the absence, will retrace their steps.
- Explain who to contact in case of danger, whether they are on the street or at home, and the Police or 112 telephone number.
- Get to know your children's friends and companies.
- That they do not open the door of the house to anyone, and should not leave minors alone until they are at least adolescents.
- Explain to them that they should always decline the invitation of strangers to get into a car or accompany them under any pretext.
- That they not accept sweets, candies, tobacco, gifts, toys, etc., that any unknown person can offer them.
- Pay close attention to any story your child tells you. For example: about a person who has tried to caress you, to give you something, etc. Tell him that he should never keep these relationships a secret, even if these people ask him to.
- In the event of any anomalous or strange situation, do not hesitate to contact the Police.
Exposure on the Internet and Social Networks carries security-related risks. It is recommended to avoid or restrict as much as possible photos, personal data or information about our activities.
To do?
- The most important thing is to stay calm. Sometimes mass hysteria has caused more damage than the event could have caused. Remember that a calm attitude can save your life.
- Always notify 112.
- In your home, be especially careful with gas. At the slightest suspicion of a leak, open doors and windows and never light a match or turn on the light switch. Quickly cut off the gas supply and notify 112 or the supply company or fire service
- If the building where you are on fire, do not rush. Locate emergency exits; breathe through a damp tissue; proceed towards the exit as low as possible; never use the elevators. Follow, in any case, the indications of the Fire Brigade and/or Emergency Services.
- If you cannot leave the building due to fire or smoke, lock yourself in a room, cover the door slots with preferably wet rags to prevent smoke from entering and always be seen through a window.
Before leaving...
- When leaving your home, make sure that the doors and windows are perfectly closed. Pay special attention to the accesses located in patios or back doors since, usually, they are less protected areas as they are more hidden.
- Whenever you go out, lock the door.
- If you lose your keys or live in a home previously occupied by other tenants, change the locks.
- Carry out an inventory of valuables, relating serial or manufacturing numbers, or other marks that allow their identification. Include photographs.
- Try not to leave documents with your signature near your check stubs. It will avoid possible counterfeits.
- Do not inform strangers of your vacation plans. Take care not to leave an abundance of mail in your mailbox. Entrust the removal of the mail to a person you trust.
- Make sure that your home appears to be inhabited: do not lower the blinds completely, install a programmable clock that lights up the house by room at different times.
- If you own a business or trade:
- Keep your alarm system in top condition.
- Avoid leaving large amounts of money in the establishment.
- Try to be accompanied at the closing and opening of the business.
- Check that all doors and windows are properly closed.
- In any situation that may affect your safety, call the Municipal or National Police.
- If you observe any criminal act, immediately notify the National or Municipal Police.
- On the street, your best defense is to avoid dangerous situations. Use common sense. Convey a confident attitude through the way you walk and carry yourself. This will influence the offender when choosing his victim. Trust your intuition.
- Do not take shortcuts through streets with little traffic, subways or unbuilt areas. A longer path is preferable, but better lit or populated.
- Avoid wearing jewelry, or wear it hidden under clothing.
- Take your keys and purse with you. In case of theft of the bag, you will not lose the keys and you will save the change of locks.
- In case of robbery, shout even if no one can apparently hear you, and look for a way to escape.
- If you are robbed, don't chase the thief; and if there is a confrontation with the thief, hand over the bag: the priority is your physical integrity.
- If the attacker is armed, use the bag as protection, and keep an eye on the weapon. Try to guess his intentions, but NEVER face him. Try to remember the physical aspect of your attacker (features, scars, tattoos, etc...)
- Try to stay calm. This will increase your chances of escaping quickly.
