You Can Stop Thefts from Vehicles
Burglary/Theft from vehicles have increased in the West Valley, and in Encino in particular. Leaving items in plain view inside your car will most likely result in the loss of that item along with a broken window. Both can be costly. Do not leave your GPS, computer, purse, briefcase, cellphone, mail, or anything else of value to you, as it can easily be taken. This is a crime of opportunity that can be avoided. If you must keep something in your car, lock it in the trunk prior to your destination.
Do not leave garage remotes in view. Your remote and any address identification in the car can lead to easy access to your home. You can black out your address on your registration. This is a good idea, especially if you valet park. Car keys can be duplicated, and if connected with an address, can lead to a possible theft in the future.
