All four vehicles were left unlocked on the owners' driveways, said Boyes, and the keys were left inside the two stolen vehicles. "We haven't had any cases (this summer) of keys left in a (stolen) car until last weekend," said Boyes, who said no such reports were submitted last summer, either. A 911 call was placed after an older child in the family heard the car start up and saw someone drive it down the street, said Boyes. The theft of the Acura MDX occurred in the 300 block of Jeffrey Street between 10:45 p. m. on Aug. Again, the owners left their keys in the car, along with a woman's purse, said Boyes. Boyes said the theft occurred in the overnight hours, and the couple didn't discover it until the next morning. The two reports of criminal trespass to a motor vehicle occurred at the same house in the 200 block of Dickens Street, police said. Source: www.chicagotribune.com
