What thieves took

Forced entry was not made into any of the vehicles as they were all unlocked, according to Maccaquano. The thieves took cash, credit cards, driver's licenses and other items were taken with everything else left behind.

Car keys were found tossed aside as they left the area.

No arrests have been made in any of the thefts. Police will have a heightened presence in residential areas. Police asked residents to report suspicious activity in their neighborhood or unusual vehicles.
