A statement that is regularly heard by Law Enforcement Officers across the nation from victims of an auto burglary is "But I was only away from my car for a minute."

Another place that criminals look for valuables is under the vehicle's seats. Remember if you can see, so can they.
Desire, ability and opportunity are the three basic elements in a crime.
