RCIPS Recommends the Use of Anti-Theft Devices for Vehicles

From RCIPS

Given the increase stolen vehicles that in many instances have been used in the commission of a further crime, the RCIPS [Royal Cayman Islands Police Service] is recommending motorists to use extra anti-theft devices to secure their vehicles, in addition to locking car doors and ensuring that windows are closed and valuables are not left inside.

We believe vehicles are being broken into and stolen using other methods well-known among criminals aside from smashing windows or taking advantage of unlocked doors or keys left inside.

Anti-theft devices can include alarms or devices that lock the steering wheel, among others.  Those who would like some further advice on this topic can email [email protected].

The following quote can be attributed to the RCIPS Spokesperson:

“Unfortunately, the fact is that with the information age these criminals regularly trade information, and the public should be equally aware and vigilant to reduce the risk of becoming a victim. We will relentlessly crackdown on all crimes, including this emerging trend of car thefts, and bring to justice these offenders, most of whom are prolific criminals.”
