City police also offered tips for trick-or-treating Monday:

• Costumes and candy bags should be bright or reflective so children can be seen. Carrying a flashlight and putting reflective tape on costumes is another option.- Masks, costumes and shoes should be well-fitting to avoid blocked vision, trips and falls.
• Children should stay on sidewalks, look both ways before crossing streets and use established crosswalks wherever possible.
• Props like swords, knives and other objects should be made of soft or flexible material.
• Only visit homes with a front porch light on; and kids should only enter homes if they’re with a trusted adult. Otherwise, Trick-or-Treaters should stay outside.
