INFORMATION RELEASE

Subject: Crime Line Crime of the Week-Movie Theater Car Rifling
Date: 2014-10-10
From: Lt. Kris Sell
Case or Incident: #140927-009
Summary:

On September 27, 2014, at about 10:15 in the evening, a woman reported someone had entered her vehicle and taken an Apple Macbook and a Yamaha trumpet. There were no signs of forced entry. The theft happened while the woman was at the movie theater at 9091 Cinema Drive.

JPD would like to remind movie-goers that their vehicles are an attractive target since thieves know the person will be gone for a defined period of time. Those drivers should take extra precautions to make sure vehicles are locked and not to leave valuables within view if someone were to look into the car. One option is to lock valuables in the trunk of a car, which is much more difficult for thieves to access and usually won?t be accidentally left unlocked as can happen with passenger doors.

Anyone with information is encouraged to log on to the Juneau Crime Line Web site and report their tip. You may also call JPD at 586-0600. You may be eligible for a reward.

Crime Line is a non-profit organization composed of a cross-section of the community and is designed to aid police agencies in their investigations.
