Lock your vehicles at all times


In early December Shelburne Police reported a rash of thefts from unlocked vehicles over a three night period. On Saturday evening (January 10th) there was another report of a theft of valuables from inside an unlocked car.
The Shelburne Police are reminding all vehicle owners to lock their cars, trucks or vans at all times. They should be locked when parked at a store, on the street, at work, and at home.
Police are actively and vigorously investigating these incidents and are following up on all leads or evidence obtained.
Beyond asking the community to lock their vehicles to reduce easy targets for these thieves, Shelburne Police is asking the public to help out by doing the following:
• Call the police immediately if you observe any suspicious person or people, a strange noise, or any other suspicious activity. A prompt response by police can help prevent further thefts, help identify potential suspects, and help preserve potential evidence. 9-1-1 is used appropriately if you believe a crime is occurring, just occurred, or is about to occur.
• Call Shelburne Police at 519 925-3312 with tips, rumors, or information even if you are not sure if it is relevant. Or leave a tip anonymously through Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or online at www.crimestopperssdm.com
