Sheboygan Police are investigating another car theft in the City.  Sergeant Joel Kuzynsky says that both Sheboygan and Manitowoc are both dealing with nationwide trend, which is being made popular by a Youtuber who is telling people how to steal certain types of vehicles.  The vehicle stolen early yesterday morning was an easy target, though, as the car was unlocked with the keys left inside.  Kuzynski says it’s hard to catch a car thief in the act, and the best way to prevent these vehicle thefts is by changing vehicle owners’ behaviors.  He’s advising people to never leave your car keys in your parked car whether away or at home, and don’t leave valuables inside.  Lock your car when unattended, and if you must have valuable items with you, don’t leave them in plain sight.
