Automobile & Personal Property Theft Prevention

The following post is from Lieutenant Andrew Wright with the Summit County Sheriff’s Office in response to recent automobile burglaries in the Pinebrook area:

“Hello neighbors, There are simple steps you can take to help prevent your vehicle from getting broken into and stolen. Use common sense when parking and exiting your vehicle: 1. Take your vehicle’s key; do not leave it in or on your vehicle. 2. Close and lock all windows and doors when you park. 3. Park in well-lit areas if possible. 4. Never leave valuables in your vehicle, especially if they can be seen from outside the vehicle. Help us keep your neighborhood safe! https://www.nhtsa.gov/road-safety/vehicle-theft-prevention
