News4: SA has Rampant Vehicle Burglary Problem

News4 WOAI TV reported last night there are over 12,000 vehicle burglaries in San Antonio this year. SAPD is responding with an undercover task force monitoring public parking lots. There have been over 100 arrests since June.

This is little consolation to FSR victims, and there was no distinction on the number of break-ins occurring in front of homes versus parking lots. A second story from WOAI quotes "expert" advice:

• No matter where you park, even if it's your own driveway...never leave anything in plain sight in your vehicle.
