COURTESY OF THE SUMMIT COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE THe Summit County Sheriff’s Office is seeking the public’s help in identifying two men who were in the Bear Hollow neighborhood at the time of several vehicle burglaries. Anyone with information is encouraged to call 435-615-3600. Wright said the incidents can serve as reminders for people to lock their vehicles and keep belongings hidden, even if they are parked in a garage. He referred to them as crimes of opportunity. Anything that you can do to minimize the risk of having your vehicle gone through or even stolen is important,” Lt. Andrew Wright, Summit County Sheriff’s Office “Anything that you can do to minimize the risk of having your vehicle gone through or even stolen is important,” he said. “If an owner leaves the keys in their vehicle, they have created a crime of opportunity. If you don’t want to be that easy target, try and minimize that risk as much as possible.” The Sheriff’s Office has responded to a string of burglaries and vehicle thefts over the last couple of weeks, Wright said. Another vehicle was reported stolen from the Jeremy Ranch neighborhood on Thursday. It was recovered later that day in Salt Lake City. The Toyota Tacoma stolen from Bear Hollow is still missing. “People are moving through neighborhoods and looking for these opportunities where people’s cars are left unlocked,” he said. “It’s just a good reminder to pay attention to what you are doing when you leave your vehicles parked overnight, even if it is in your driveway or even your garage. These criminals are getting smart and they know how to access them. People have to do their part too.” you r o of phot a ing t s id Po er r ienc m, ex p e tag ra s In r it on Tw it te d n t rans a ook , htag b s e a c h e Fa ing th a n s it by us a r k C it yTr P e id # IR www.parkcity.org 435.615.5317 ANNUAL END OF YEAR SALE 25-50% OFF STOREWIDE Four Days Only, December 26-29 1351 Kearns Blvd., Suite 160 Wednesday - Friday: 10am - 6pm • Saturday: 11am -4pm www.oohsaahs.com • (435) 659-5864 |
