Locked vehicle warnings continue to be ignored: Police
It’s a warning the RCMP issued several times and it continues to be ignored by many.
With the increase in thefts in the area, particularly in vehicle break-ins, RCMP are frustrated people still refuse to lock their vehicles while unattended or leave valuables inside which tempt thieves.
Wilkie RCMP report four vehicles were entered on July 27 with owners reporting stolen items including loose change and valuables. A vehicle was also stolen on July 27 but later recovered in the town.
Between July 28 and 29, Maidstone RCMP reported nine offences including break and enter into vehicles and vehicle thefts.
