Of the three vehicles stolen, two were unlocked with keys in them and one was locked with no key inside. Martin said it was unclear at this point how the locked vehicle was stolen.
Taken in the break-ins were handguns, loose change and electronics.
“The holiday season is upon us and there are individuals that utilize this time of the year to look for easy targets,” Martin said.
