The Camrose Police Service is encouraging drivers to take precautions to protect their vehicle and vehicle’s contents from theft. Whether you are parking at work, the store, or at home, leaving valuables in plain sight or the vehicle unlocked makes an easy target for thieves.

In the month of November citizens have reported 23 occurrences of theft from motor vehicles, which included the loss of money, wallets and other personal items.

Take the time to ensure you are securing your vehicle when leaving your vehicle unattended.

Here are some tips to protect your vehicle and its contents:

  • Ensure doors are always locked and the key is in your pocket;
  • Never leave valuables in plain sight
  • Put shopping bags and other parcels in the trunk
  • Take electronics, including your cellphone, with you
  • Don’t leave your car running unattended
