Unlocked vehicles

The Wellington County OPP is again reminding the public to protect their property and valuables against would-be thieves.

Police say they received numerous reports of someone entering unlocked vehicles overnight recently on Ellis Road in Puslinch Township.

Police offer the following tips to avoid becoming a victim:

– always roll up vehicle windows and lock the doors;

– never leave a vehicle unattended while it is running;

– use a garage if possible and lock both the garage and vehicle doors;

– never leave vehicle keys in plain view or in an easily accessible area;

– always park in a well-lit area; and

– never leave valuable objects or packages in plain view (put them in the trunk).
