Logan police are being kept extra busy trying to catch car thieves following an uptick in thefts in the past week or so.
No fewer than 10 vehicles are currently on the list of cars stolen across the Logan district.
Thieves have taken cars from Browns Plains, Woodridge, Beaudesert, Loganholme and Marsden.
Police say there are several things you can do to reduce the risk of having your car stolen including:
Always keep your keys out of sight and never leave them lying around on tables, benches, bedside tables or key hooks in your home.
Always lock your vehicle even when you are at home.
When parking in your garage, ensure both the garage and vehicle are locked.
Park your vehicle in a well-lit, highly visible area.
Consider installing a car alarm to help protect your vehicle.
Never hide spare keys in your vehicle.
Always take your vehicle keys with you whenever you are going out, even if you are leaving your vehicle at home.
Always lock your screens, doors and garages even when you are home. Sneak offences occur when people are home and vehicles can be stolen without your knowledge.
