Recently individuals utilizing stolen vehicles have been in our town and village, at night, going through unlocked vehicles. They are stealing anything valuable and taking cars if keys/fobs are left in them. These criminals are brazen and dangerous and have no respect for human life. They have led EAPD and other agencies on high speed chases.

LAST NIGHT THREE (3) VEHICLES WERE STOLEN FROM THE VILLAGE

LOCK YOUR CAR! DO NOT LEAVE VALUABLES IN YOUR CAR!

AND, DO NOT LEAVE KEYS/FOBS IN YOUR CAR!!!!!!!!
