RCMP reiterate the costly consequences of unlocked vehicles
KAMLOOPS — Local RCMP officers respond to between eight and 10 reports of thefts from vehicles every night, and 80 per cent of the time the vehicles are left unlocked.
Today, July 21, Cpl. Jodi Shelkie demonstrated just how important it is to make sure vehicles are locked up and valuables are out of sight with a downtown walkabout for local media.
Shelkie says even if a vehicle is locked, the sight of valuable items could entice a thief to break a window.
