O'Brien recommends that all children are accompanied by an adult for Halloween.
He said those who are trick-or-treating should remember to respect people's property and those who chose not to celebrate.
Police request that imitation weapons are not used as they can scare some members of the community.
"Police just want everyone to have a fun and safe night."

However, critics say they’re dangerous and people are injured by them every year. Fans, on the other hand, argue that all fun involves some level of risk, it just needs to be managed safely.
Last year, we saw a 23% drop in the number of fireworks-related injury claims (171 claims across 2017 versus 223 across 2016). What do you think? Should personal fireworks be banned? Click here for advice on how to use fireworks responsibly.
