We had a car break in the other night in a crowded parking lot.  We are not the only victims in the area. Atlanta Rocks, about a mile away, has had a similar problem.  The bad guys look in the car window for valuables, then break in if they spot something they think worth stealing.  Hide valuables under the seat, or under a bunch of trash in the car, like I do.
