Advisory

Vehicle Thefts

Crime Prevention Tip:

We have been preaching this for years on social media, please LOCK your vehicle's, remove the keys/fobs from the interior and don't leave valuables in your car. Overnight, while it was down pouring multiple vehicles were stolen and entered. In one case a vehicle that was unlocked in the driveway was entered, then the unknown actor used the garage door opener to gain access into the garage. The common theme was that ALL the vehicles were unlocked and the keys/fob were inside the cars.

So, PLEASE lock your vehicles, remove keys/fobs and valuables from the interior. If you notice anything or anyone suspicious in your neighborhoods please call us immediately!!! Last nights burglaries and car thefts occurred in the Wayside Section of town off the Deal Road corridor. Police Officers and Detectives are currently investigating leads and reviewing surveillance footage...

Thanks for you continued support and please share!
