How a thief steals from your car without touching your car, Rural View
It’s not magic – they just need you to do one thing …. just one.
Leave your window down.
Between 6:00 pm on October 3 and 8:00 am on October 4 a crook has stolen from a car parked in the owner’s driveway in Busuttin Drive, Rural View. The car was locked – but the windows were down
An android tablet, medication and cosmetics were stolen.
Crooks are frequently opportunistic and predictable – unfortunately they won’t turn their back on an opportunity to reach into a car and steal your valuable items. Police encourage car owners to make sure your windows are secured when you lock your car. They go hand in hand with each other.
Like Bonnie and Clyde.
