[bar] CAR KEY BURGLARIES - Raids where car keys are taken during a house burglary to steal expensive cars parked in the drive - known as 'Hanoi-style' break-ins - are increasing across the country. West Yorkshire Police have now issued the following advice: If you have a garage, park your car in it. Many people with garages use them for storage. Clear them out and use them for the purpose for which they were built. This will keep your cars out of the sight of preying eyes. Consider fitting an electric garage door. This is an added incentive to use the garage. Many people just cannot be bothered getting out of their cars, and unlocking the garage, especially in bad weather. If you have to park your car in the driveway consider fitting substantial gates or security posts.

Large flat screen TV taken but raider challenged by neighbour leaving house threw TV at him and ran off up Thorpe Lane and on to Ings Road. Suspect: Iraqi male, short black hair, unshaven, 5ft 10 - 6ft tall, average build. early twenties. Almondbury, June 26.DO NOT leave car keys in an obvious place, make it as hard as possible for the thief. Take your car keys to bed with you. New cars have very sophisticated locks, immobilisers and other security devices and the only way to start the vehicle is to have the key. Thieves are selecting cars they want to steal from outside houses. They will look for any opportunity to steal keys that are left hanging up in the kitchen or hallway or left on the table - and will actually target them. It is therefore vital that householders do hide the keys from view. Make sure that you take other simple crime prevention measures to ensure that they don't become victims of sneak-in thieves or burglary, such as remembering not to leave doors and windows unlocked.Europrofile lock on back upvc conservatory door snapped.
