While vehicle thefts are not common in Thomaston, the Nassau County Police Departments want to remind everyone that 98% of stolen vehicles occur due to the operator leaving the FOB/key in the car.
To prevent items from being stolen from cars and vehicles thefts:
- Always remove your FOB/keys from your vehicle when you are not operating it
- Never leave a spare FOB/key in the vehicle
- Ensure your vehicle is locked at all times and close all windows
- Never leave your vehicle running and unattended
- Park your car in the garage if possible, especially at night
- Park you vehicle in a well-lit and highly visible area
