Ramsey Police Warn Residents Of Vehicle Break-Ins

RAMSEY, N.J. — Police are warning residents to remove keys from their vehicles and lock them after several have been burglarized and stolen from Ramsey and several municipalities recently.

"If everyone removes the keys and key fobs from their vehicles these thefts would stop," Saddle River police said. "Locking your vehicle when it's in the driveway prevents car burglaries from occurring and deters criminals from our area."

A vehicle was stolen from the north east section of Saddle River recently; that vehicle was recovered in Newark, authorities said.

"These criminals will continue to come to our town if they are successful stealing cars that have the keys or fobs in them."

Anyone who sees suspicious activity should call the Ramsey Police Department at 201-327-2400.
