It’s easy to feel invincible when you’ve never fallen victim to a crime of opportunity. During holiday seasons, we tend to be even less aware of our surroundings as we scramble to herd the kids into the car, bypassing the mountains of beads in the backseat – you get the idea.
The good news? Vehicle break-ins throughout the city are highly preventable; simply remembering to lock your doors and conceal your belongings prior to hitting the parade route can avert a pricey mistake. Be sure to “Lock It Or Lose It,” and make wise decisions to avoid Mardi Gras mayhem.
