Frankfort Police is again reminding residents to lock vehicle doors and remove valuables when possible.  This is the best way to avoid being a victim of a car burglary or theft.  Please NEVER leave your keys or key fobs in your car.  Last night Frankfort, as well as, several other area agencies experienced car burglaries of vehicles left unlocked.  In some instances, it was reported that garage door openers from unlocked vehicles were used to also enter vehicles in garages.  Frankfort officers on patrol did spot a suspicious vehicle (Black Audi) in the Charrington subdivision that immediately fled at a very high rate of speed upon seeing officers.  It was later determined that the vehicle was stolen earlier last night in Evanston.  We ask that if you see anything out of the ordinary or hear anything, such as a car door shutting or a dog barking at an unusual time, call the Frankfort Police Department immediately at 911 (emergency) or 815-485-2500 (non-emergency). Working with the community is the best way for you to help us to stop crime. Remember “Lock it or Lose it!!” and if you “See (or hear) Something, Say Something”, and call the police.
