Lancaster County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Ben Houchin says, “Please, lock your car. Don’t leave your keys in there and quit leaving property of value in there, especially in view. We have been working a lot (of auto thefts) and I know the city has too. I know that doesn’t mean that people have the right to go in and steal your stuff but there are a lot of individuals just going around looking for crimes of opportunity.”
