ALERT - Overnight theft from car on Wicks driveway

3:02a.m., Thursday, February 20, 2020

A neighbour from Wicks Drive (at the Northern end) informed the Watch that her daughter had belongings stolen from her car while it was parked on their driveway overnight. Her daughter may have overlooked locking the vehicle when she parked it the night before. There was no sign of forced entry, but discarded belongings were found strewn around the nearby boulevard.

Assume that EVERY night opportunistic thieves are moving from vehicle to vehicle on our driveways taking advantage of unlocked vehicles. Encourage all drivers in your home to adopt the habit of locking their vehicle as they exit, ideally using the lock switch on the interior of the driver's side door.
