(ELLIOT LAKE, ON) – The East Algoma Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) remind vehicle owners to lock their unattended vehicles at all times, even in your own driveways. It only takes seconds for a theft to occur. Police do not want you to lose items in your vehicle you worked hard to own. Items such as loose change, purses and wallets, electronic devices and chargers, or any items of value should be removed from your vehicle whenever you park it for any length of time. If for some reason you must leave these items, conceal them so that they do not tempt would-be” thieves from taking them.
