– We appeal to all residents of Legnica County not to leave valuables in their cars. A thief waits for an opportunity. Let us remember that properly securing our property will protect us from the unpleasant consequences of theft – say officers from KMP. – Breaking a car window and taking a bag left on the car seat takes a thief just a few or a dozen seconds. Let us remember that opportunity makes the thief.
Drivers and passengers often underestimate the value of items they leave in their cars. To a thief, often an opportunist, even an empty bag, an old navigation device, a cardboard box from a computer or phone may have value and attract their interest.
We often think that there is no one nearby and leave valuable items in the car. After all, we are only getting out for a moment – to quickly take care of something and return right away. How surprised we are later when documents, money and other valuable items disappear from the car.
Legnica police officers appeal to drivers and passengers not to leave electronic equipment, boxes, bags, backpacks, clothing, documents, mobile phones, navigation devices, and similar items in their cars. Let us remember that our safety depends above all on how prudent and attentive we are.
