While bait cars are used by police year-round, over the holidays the vehicles will have Christmas parcels and packages inside. 

“We’re hoping to prevent theft of vehicle, and theft from vehicles, so we’re giving a heads-up to the thieves,” said Cpl. Jodi Shelkie. “We’re looking for you, so don’t plan to do it. Also, we just want to send that reminder out there to people in general, to citizens in general, that you can help prevent it yourself.”
