Drivers in Wakefield are being urged to make sure they do not leave valuables in their cars following recent thefts.
The Wakefield North West Neighbourhood Policing Team is urging drivers to make sure they keep valuables out of site and if possible take them out of cars following recent break-ins in car parks.
Officers have issued the advice following an increase in thefts from cars parked in car parks in the Wakefield city centre area.
Motorists are urged to never leave valuables such as wallets/purses, mobile phones or Sat Nav systems on open display in cars and to remove them when leaving their vehicles if possible.
They should also always check their cars by trying the handle before leaving them to make sure doors have physically locked.
Drivers using Sat Navs are also advised to wipe away any smears left inside car windows from suction cups.
