Truck stolen, vehicles rummaged through on Baldwin block, neighbors say
Neighbors in Baldwin Borough are warning of an uptick in theft after vehicles were rummaged through and a truck was stolen.
“You feel violated. There’s nothing you can do about it, sit back and wait and wonder, God, hopefully, they don’t do anything stupid to my vehicle,” said Jason Scanlon.
Scanlon woke up early Tuesday morning to discover that his Dodge Ram had been stolen right from outside of his home on Ruthwood Avenue. He had left it unlocked, but the key fob was in his house.
A neighbor across the street, Kelly Blevins, caught three individuals on a security camera roaming her driveway, but the theft itself wasn’t captured.
Blevins said that the snow had impacted her censors. She’s now changed the settings.
The neighbors told Channel 11 that other vehicles on the block were rummaged through, with items tossed around on the ground.
They hope police can catch the crooks responsible.
“It’s heartbreaking,” Blevins said. “It’s almost Christmas time and people have to be worried about this and they shouldn’t.”
Channel 11 contacted Baldwin Borough Police for more information, but we had not received a response at the time this article was published.
Scanlon said he wants to warn neighbors to lock up and remain alert.
