Our community's involvement is crucial in preventing such incidents. If possible, park in a secured garage. If a garage is not an option, park in well-lit areas. Remove all items from your vehicle. Leave nothing in plain sight. Make sure all windows are up, and doors are secured and locked. Use a motion-sensing alarm system and steering wheel locking device. Remove garage door openers from the vehicle.
Your role as a witness is crucial. Please do not confront suspects. Property is replaceable; people are not. If you hear or see a theft in progress, please call us immediately. If possible, provide a location and description of the suspects, their vehicle, and the vehicle plate.
While our investigators work to identify and locate the suspects responsible for Sunday's thefts, please ensure that you are taking the necessary steps to protect your vehicle and personal belongings.
