Man caught on camera casing cars in South Vernon neighbourhood

Olivier Lebrun has a warning for his neighbours: make sure your vehicles are locked.

Surveillance cameras caught someone trying to break in to vehicles in an area west of Fulton Road in South Vernon at 3:43 a.m. Wednesday June 9.

“The doors were locked as we always make sure to double check all the time, but we would like to make other people in our neighbourhood aware,” Lebrun said.

Lebrun does not know of any vehicles being broken into recently, but has heard of unlocked garden sheds being rummaged through.

He has also heard of items being taken from unlocked cars over the past couple of years.

People are reminded to make sure their vehicles are locked and to leave nothing of value in their vehicles.
