A review of stolen vehicle reports in Nashville from Sunday, December 2, through Saturday, December 8, shows that 48.9 % of the automobiles taken (22 of 45) were easy targets because the keys were left inside or made available to thieves.
The police department’s continuing PARK SMART campaign strongly urges citizens to lock their automobile doors, secure any valuables and REMOVE THE KEYS.
Officers also urge citizens to SHOP SMART by not leaving purses or other valuables unattended in shopping carts, even for a very short time. An unattended purse is an easy target for a thief.
