Auto Theft: the Toughest Nut for Police to Crack
West-Northwest Side police districts use crime pattern areas to target burglaries robberies and muggings but auto theft remains the hardest crime. Commanders Thanasouras McNulty and Sims note that 35 to 50 felons are weekly sent to state prison yet many keep stealing cars. Juveniles account for over half and many call it a prank. Police chief Conlisk says auto theft is a criminal offense not a prank. Ten minutes each car is reported stolen according to radio dispatch cards.
