The vehicles were reported stolen over the past 24 hours from residential driveways. Investigators note that property crimes of this nature are frequently crimes of opportunity, where perpetrators target unsecured vehicles.
To prevent further incidents, residents are strongly encouraged to practice the routine safety habits below:
• Lock all doors every time you leave your vehicle.
• Remove all keys and key fobs from inside the car.
• Take all valuables inside, including phones, laptops, wallets, and bags.
• Hide remaining items completely out of sight if they cannot be removed.
• Park in well-lit areas or areas covered by security cameras when possible.
• Report suspicious activity to local law enforcement immediately.
