Police are reminding everyone to pocket your keys after a Ford Edge was stolen from a driveway in Embro.
Embro - Police are once again reminding residents to pocket your keys after an SUV was stolen in Embro.
The grey 2018 Ford Edge was parked in the driveway of a home on Halladay Street on Sunday night. The key fab and the keys were left inside the vehicle, making it an easy target. A purse containing personal and financial information was also left in the vehicle.
Below are some simple steps to help reduce the number of stolen vehicles and protect you as the vehicle owner:
- Do not leave your keys in your vehicle.
- Do not leave your vehicle running.
- Lock your vehicle.
- Treat your keys like cash - Don't leave keys in places where they are easy to steal such as a gym locker, on your desk at work, in an open purse or unattended in a shopping cart.
- Never leave anything in your vehicle in plain view such as loose change, cell phones, cameras, clothing, gifts, cigarettes, medication, firearms or any other valuables.
- Install a remote car starter - Remote starters are designed to shut off if anyone attempts to drive the vehicle without a key. This will allow you to warm up your car without risk of theft.
Police are continuing to investigate and is seeking assistance from the public. If anyone has any information regarding this incident, they are being asked to contact the Oxford County OPP Detachment at 1-888-310-1122.
