Recently in the Sully District, we have experienced a rising number of tool thefts from work vans and service trucks parked in residential areas.
If you or someone you know has a work van, here are a few tips to help prevent them from being targeted. - Lock the vehicle!
- Use quality locks to secure side and rear doors.
- Consider installing a barrier shield between the driver/passenger compartment and the rear.
- Park the vehicle in a garage or driveway.
- Park in a well lit area.
- Have vehicle equipped with an alarm system.
- Limit visibility of the tools.
- Have locking compartments inside of vehicle.
- Install tool boxes that you can bolt in place to vehicle.
- Make sure the tool boxes that you have can be secured with a lock.
Please contact the police should you observe any suspicious activity, persons or vehicles. Call especially if you see someone trying car door handles or peering into vehicles.
