ARLINGTON, VA — The Arlington County Police Department is investigating a series of incidents Tuesday morning that included tampering with cars and two vehicles getting stolen.

Several vehicles were rummaged through in the Glencarlyn area of Arlington Tuesday morning, with the suspects stealing items from at least one car, according to police.
