Law enforcement agencies across the Bay Area are warning the public about an alarming rise in vehicle thefts tied to violent criminal activity.
Authorities report that thieves are now using advanced devices to bypass ignition systems on keyless entry vehicles, allowing them to steal cars, trucks and SUVs of nearly any make or model without a physical key.
Stolen vehicles are increasingly being used to commit other crimes, including sideshows, smash-and-grab burglaries and other dangerous offenses, officials said.
Police advise residents to stay vigilant and avoid confronting suspects, noting that many involved are organized, armed and dangerous.
Anyone witnessing a theft or suspicious activity is urged to call the police immediately and provide detailed information, including vehicle descriptions and suspect behavior.

an unsecured vehicle.

Gee, I wonder who is stealing the cars? Sideshows? Smash and grab? Duh…, let me guess…
Shocker!!!! Until we start locking up these individuals that are committing these crimes nothing will ever change. Crime is practically legal in CA and it’s a shame to the law-abiding citizens.
How’s it working out for everyone who believes that criminals should be out running wild in our communities, instead of them being in jail, where they belong?
Remember the Police telling us that defunding the Dept(s) would raise crime rates? Voters here
bought the BLM lies instead and reduced their police at various agencies. After 5 years or so of following the George Floyd effect, we have the situation as it is now. Without law and order cand-
idates, there will be NO help from the Democrats.
I’m afraid we’re locked in here for violent crime to be the norm, and theft/property crime reduced to
misdemeanors (at least the last election changed the absurd $950 level). Maybe there is hope, but
will take many years to correct.
An entire industry built around fencing stolen goods from retailers has emerged,that has eclipsed
any prior eras’ organized crews. They’re mostly youngsters in the organizations getting a college level education of how to do a job correctly. With no lid on them, they are free to roam. Time for smash and grab, carjacking, burglary and robbery.
If I didn’t know better, I would think it’s a plan. And it’s working.
