A reminder from Chatham-Kent Police with the gift-giving season upon us.

Authorities say criminals look for opportunities, and a vehicle with an unlocked door or open window is an easy target.

Protect yourself from being a victim of this crime by constantly rolling up your windows, locking your doors, and removing valuables from plain view.
