Smash and Grabs from cars in isolated areas, like near the trails, is up 25% over last year (or last 2 years?)
It happened to a friend of mine on Washington's Landing this weekend. Mid afternoon on a Sunday. Nothing of value in sight. She was parked under the bridge, not way at the far end. Police said cars had been getting hit pretty regularly up and down River Avenue.
