  • Police remind citizens to lock their vehicles

    Kingston police wish to remind citizens not to leave valuables in their vehicles and be sure to lock their doors. These types of thefts are usually thefts of opportunity.

On rare occasions a thief may smash a window or cause damage to get into a locked vehicle, especially if something of value can been seen from the outside. This forced entry creates a greater chance of the thief being caught due to the noise and is therefore far less common.
