Fair Lawn PD: Burglar Caught Swiping Items From Unlocked Vehicles

Summoned by citizens reporting a drunken man in their neighborhood, Fair Lawn police arrested a local resident who they said stole debit cards, sunglasses, headphones, a phone charger and change from three unlocked vehicles.

Fair Lawn police once again reminded citizens to lock their vehicles, wherever they're parked, and to remove all valuables. Never leave the key fob inside, they said.
