A SERIES of vehicle break-ins in the Blue Mountains local area command recently serve as a timely reminder not to leave valuable items in your car.
All car owners should remove valuables from vehicles, especially those parked in driveways, open carports and on the roadway.
Car owners should also be aware of any suspicious activity.
Thieves usually steal items such as mobile phones, cash, GPSs, CDs and CD players.
People should take those items with them or at least store them out of sight in the vehicle.
As thieves usually gain entry by smashing a window, it’s also a good idea to park in well-lit, busy streets whenever possible. It may sound obvious, but always remember to lock your car and ensure all of the windows are fully closed.
If you notice suspicious activity around parked cars report it to either Springwood police on 4751 0299 or Katoomba police on 4782 8199.
