"Don't Be A Victim Of Car Theft" - District 1 RCMP

If your car is locked, most culprits would rather move on than cause damage trying to get in.


That coming from Sgt. Bob MacKnight from District 1 RCMP on how to keep yourself from becoming a victim of car theft.

MacKnight points to a number of thefts from vehicles -- and a theft of a vehicle -- in St. Stephen last week, and says in nearly every instance, the cars were unlocked, with keys inside, and valuables in the open.

He says most of the culprits he deals with will not cause damage to a car that is locked, they will simply move on to another unlocked vehicle.

MacKnights wants to remind our listeners (and readers) that they should "lock it and pocket the key". As well, with respect to valuables and cash, you should take them inside the house, or in the very least, placed out of sight. He says this is the easiest way to keep yourself from becoming a victim.
