NOTE: These crimes occurred near the 104th and/or 108th Precinct borders so we all need to be aware. We will be working with our precincts on 4/20 to help with VIN Etching. We'll give you more info as the date approaches.
I just wanted to spread some information on some vehicle related crimes that have occurred recently in the 110 precinct south of Queens Boulevard.
First, there was a catalytic converter stolen from a Mitsubishi which was parked on Simonson Street between Grand Avenue and Queens Boulevard. This incident took place between 1/14-1/16. Some deterrents to catalytic converter theft may be having the catalytic converter painted or installing a catalytic converter protective cage.
Another incident was reported on 1/22 in which the owner of a Toyota left his keys in the car and the car was stolen near 87 Street and 57 Road. Obviously, it is not wise to leave keys in the vehicle. Vehicle theft deterrents may be utilizing the club, car alarms, air tags for tracking, and services from the NYPD such as Combat Auto Theft Program and VIN etching. I hope this update was informative and helpful. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions/concerns.
Respectfully,
Police Officer John Williams
