Don't want your car broken into? A good place to start would be to lock your doors.
That
didn't happen when thieves entered 18 cars in east Medford in recent days,
taking spare change, a wallet, credit cards and even a gun left inside the
vehicles, Medford police said.
"We
see these a lot," Medford police Lt. Mike Budreau said. "If you leave your car
unlocked overnight, you're asking for somebody to open the door and look around
and steal any property that could be in it."
Police
said the neighborhood will go for months without any reports of criminal
activity, leading residents to get lax about locking up.
"They
get complacent," Budreau said. "All it takes is one time with leaving
your door unlocked."
