Thieves targeting car equipment

Motorists in Leicestershire are being warned about a spate of satellite navigation systems being stolen from vehicles across the county. Leicestershire Police said more than 40 systems, which cost about £300 each, have been taken by thieves since April. Officers are urging owners to remove the devices when leaving their cars to deter thieves.
Police said the systems were often not security coded in the same way car stereos were.
