Police Notes for Buckingham March 12, 2008

Police are reporting a very high number of larcenies from autos, a trend that started last year and has continued into this year.

Thieves are breaking into cars to steal electronic devices such as GPS systems, iPods and cell phones. They break into the cars if they can see the device in plain view. If thieves can see wires or mounting brackets for the devices, they might break in thinking that the devices are hidden inside the car.
