The Toronto Police Service would like to make the public aware that auto thefts continue to be an issue in 53 Division.
See excerpt from previous news release:
Since January 1, 2015, investigators from 53 Division's Major Crime Unit have noticed a spike in theft of Toyota and Lexus SUVs from driveways of homes in the Division. In all of the thefts, there have been no signs of damage at any of the scenes.
Investigators believe that the suspect(s) may have access to electronic devices which can compromise an SUV's security system.
Investigators are asking members of the public to be vigilant when securing their SUVs, even in their driveways. Using a locked garage is recommended and any spare keys for SUVs should be secured in a safe location.
People are reminded to call police and report any suspicious activity or suspicious person(s) near their vehicles.
For further information on securing your property, please contact 53 Division Community Safety Officers at
416-808-5337.
Investigators also recommend considering the use of a secondary device to secure vehicles, like a steering wheel lock, or if they have additional vehicles to park a less valuable vehicle behind the more valuable one.Investigators believe that the suspect(s) may have access to electronic devices which can compromise an SUV's security system.
