Richfield Police Warn Residents of Car Theft

The Richfield police are asking residents to be aware of car theft in the area.

Police say residents should always lock their vehicles. Do not leave any valuables in your car, including laptops, GPS devices, briefcases, cash, change, sunglasses, CD’s, iPods, cell phones, or gym bags. Items such as these are tempting to a thief.

Authorities also ask residents to close and lock your garage; or park as close to your home or apartment building as possible.

Residents who report suspicious activity while it is happening could save you or someone else from being victimized.

Call 911 and stay on the line if you see or hear something that seems unusual or suspicious. Try to get a description of the suspects and their vehicle, but do not confront suspects.
