Holiday Shopping “Prevention”
Holidays are a great time of the year. Please lock your vehicle when leaving it parked and this will deter would-be thieves from entering your vehicle. Also when shopping, place your purchases in the trunk or out of sight, this too will help protect your vehicle and its contents from the roaming eyes of a thief.
