Alberta RCMP is urging residents to take extra precautions to protect their vehicles and belongings from theft during summer outdoor activities. “Theft of vehicles is often a crime of opportunity,” the RCMP said in a release. “A quick trip into the convenience store is all the time a thief needs to steal a running vehicle.” Drivers are also advised to remove keys, garage door openers and documents containing personal identifying information from their vehicles. Police warn that stolen keys and personal information can be used to break into homes.
