Tri-Cities Prowlers are Stealing More Cars Lately
I read a local report recently that talks about how car thefts are going up in our area, particularly Pasco.
For instance, last January in Pasco they were 14 cars stolen. This January that number jumps to 47!
A lot of people warm up their cars before work and that's where most of the thefts happened. But it turns out that the usual cars that are stolen most often (like older Hondas) are not the only ones getting stolen these days. What about newer cars?
Wouldn't newer vehicles be extremely hard to steal? Apparently not because thefts are rising even for cars with those fancy key fobs.
I did a little research and found the video below that explains why and what you can do to protect yourself from these nasty car thieves.

Many of the included towns jump out at the casual observer as popular summer-rental spots--the Ozarks' Branson, Missouri, or Arizona's Lake Havasu--it might surprise you to dive deeper into some quality-of-life offerings beyond the beach and vacation homes. You'll likely pick up some knowledge from a wide range of Americana: one of the last remaining 1950s-style drive-ins in the Midwest; a Florida town that started as a Civil War veteran retirement area; an island boasting some of the country's top public schools and wealth-earners right in the middle of a lake between Seattle and Bellevue; and even a California town containing much more than Johnny Cash's prison blues.
