THEFTS FROM AUTOS: On July 12 and July 13, someone broke into several cars parked at the Hiker Biker Trail in Indian Head and stole valuables that were left inside the cars. The suspect smashed the windows to the vehicles and stole a cell phone, wallets, a back pack, a laptop and a canvass bag. Officers processed the cars and canvassed the areas for witnesses. The CCSO is reminding citizens to remove valuables from cars, no matter where you are. The CCSO also recommends you do not attempt to hide valuables underneath jackets or other items as thieves tend to know this trick.
