FPD reports a high number of vehicle thefts and break-ins since the beginning of this year.
FAIRBANKS, Alaska -The Fairbanks Police Department has reported a high volume of calls regarding vehicle thefts since the beginning of this year.
“Since January of 2023, Fairbanks Police Department has received over 20 reports of vehicle thefts,” said Dupee. “That is a mixture of both you know, retail facilities whether it is Walmart, Fred Meyers, places like that, gas stations.” He added, it is also a good idea not to leave valuables in the vehicle. Items such as jewelry, money, or handguns can be tempting for those looking to break into vehicles. “Take it [valuables] inside wherever you go, whether it’s home or work. Just don’t leave those valuables inside your vehicle for someone to be able to steal them,” said Dupee.
He went on to explain what the process is when someone reports a vehicle theft or break-in. Dupee stated dispatch enters the victim’s information into a statewide database that shows the vehicle is in a stolen status. “Then we have an officer respond to the scene and they talk with the victim and they give them any characteristics, if they have any dents in the door, something like that,” he added.
