Derby Police: Lock Your Car Doors

It’s spread to Derby.

Last week Ansonia Police Chief Kevin Hale told the Valley Indy about a rash of car burglaries his city was experiencing.

Today Derby police issued a release saying residents there are falling victim to the same crime.

Residents should be aware that there have been numerous car break-ins throughout Derby,” police said. While one arrest has been made, we are still investigating these incidents.” 

Derby police are urging residents not to leave valuables in their vehicles — and to make sure doors are locked.

Anyone with information on the Derby break-ins should call the department’s detective division at 203 – 735-7811.

Last summer there was a similar rash of break-ins in Ansonia, Derby, Seymour and Shelton.
