The City of Oxnard has experienced an increase in stolen vehicles in the last 4 weeks. As you can see from the map, they have occurred throughout the city. You can check your neighborhood stats at the following website: www.crimemapping.com.

The Oxnard Police Department would like to remind residents of the following tips to help prevent vehicle thefts:
• Never leave your car unlocked, not even for a minute.
• Never leave your keys in the car, even if you think they are really "hidden."
• Don't leave your car idling and unattended because it is unnecessary (it doesn't get cold enough here), it is unsafe and illegal (22515(a) V.C.) and someone can steal your car.
• Wheel locks, brake pedal locks and steering wheel locks are also effective.
• Also, it is a well-known fact that the crime of stealing a vehicle is not the only crime that occurs. Usually, this “first” crime can lead to fraud, theft of identity, grand theft, etc.

Be a “Partner in Public Safety” and help keep Oxnard crime free and safe. If you see suspicious activity, please report to the Oxnard Police Department at (805) 385–7740 or dial 9-1-1. Anonymous information and tips can also be made with the Ventura County Crimestoppers at (800) 222–8477. ... See more
