Multiple Car Break-Ins Reported In One-Block Radius

BROOKLINE, MA — After multiple reports of vehicles "rummaged through," Brookline Police are warning drivers to to remember to lock their doors.

Police said last week that reports of someone breaking and entering into vehicles have been received three times in the past month in the same area.

The latest report, from Dec. 28, states the victim's car was parked in a lot on Freeman street, and the driver believed someone had been rummaging through the vehicle.

According to police, "This is the third report in a one block radius of cars being rummaged through; a few of the owners had left the vehicles unlocked. This is a good reminder to keep your vehicles locked and keep items out of view."

Similar reports came in around the same time, including a vehicle parked on Armory Street, and another on Freeman Street.
