Theft from Vehicles
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT - THEFT FROM VEHICLES

As the weather begins to warm up, the Borough historically experiences an elevated number of thefts from motor vehicles. We have begun to see this trend and due to COVID-19 work and school restrictions, many people are home and idle. This presents an opportunity for idle would be criminals to commit these thefts, but it also presents the opportunity for those being home to see out of ordinary behavior.
