Gardai report unusual theft from car in Limerick
GARDAI have reported an usual type of theft from a car in Limerick.
On Wednesday, October 4 at lunchtime a man in his early 50s parked his car at Steamboat Quay in Limerick city.
He locked his car with the windows up and went into an appointment in a clinic.
When he came out an hour later, the four windows in his car were open and his tax disc was gone. He had his car keys with him at all times.
It appears that he accidently pressed down the open button on his key for too long and the windows in his car opened.
Sergeant Ber Leetch, Crime Prevention Officer at Henry Street garda station said: "Be careful when holding your car keys or putting them in your pocket you could be opening your car by mistake."
