Car thieves using power tools to steal vehicles
Original: car thieves using power tools
Car thieves are increasingly using power tools to break into and steal vehicles, a method that cuts through locks and windows quickly and quietly. The concern comes as Essex remains among the areas of England where drivers face some of the highest risk of car theft, even though overall theft offences have fallen. Motorists are being urged to park securely and consider extra protection such as steering locks.
Why now: Reports of power-tool theft methods coincide with news that Essex drivers remain among those most at risk of car theft.
