Criminal Activity Alert – Auto Thefts & Burglaries – S.R. & Neighboring Towns – Remove Key FOB’s and Lock Vehicles
Saddle River and several neighboring jurisdictions have been experiencing high end auto thefts and auto burglaries. Another vehicle was stolen from the Burning Hollow section of town last night. Earlier in the week a vehicle was stolen from the north east section of Saddle River. That vehicle was recovered in Newark. If everyone removes the keys and key FOB’s from their vehicles these thefts will stop. We had an attempt but the criminals were unsuccessful because the key FOB was removed from the vehicle. Locking your vehicle when its in the driveway prevents car burglaries from occurring and deters criminals from our area. These criminals will continue to come to our town if they are successful stealing cars that have the keys or FOB’s left in them.

but its so convenient for me to keep my car running while I pick up my coffee at Starbucks in the morning….
Don’t tell me I’ll have to (ugh) turn off the car and (sigh) actually lock it.
