This is a good reminder for everyone to ensure your car windows are rolled up and doors locked when your vehicle is parked...even in your driveway. Valuables should not be left in your vehicle or should be hidden out of view before you arrive at your destination. Additionally, please report suspicious persons to the police and be able to tell the dispatcher why you think the person is suspicious.
