Car Burglaries Up In Florham Park Area, Police Warn

FLORHAM PARK, NJ— Car burglaries have been up in the Florham Park area, police shared in a Facebook post, urging residents to be careful.

Police called the amount of burglaries to both cars and homes "unusually high," but shared tips to prevent them.

Residents should keep car and home doors locked at all times. Any type of valuables, including loose change, should be taken out of the car before locking it, and suspicious activity should be reported to police immediately.
