🚨 **LOCK IT. SECURE IT. REMOVE THE KEYS.** 🚨
The MNPD strongly encourages Nashvillians and visitors to take a few simple steps to help prevent vehicle break-ins and auto theft:
🔒 **Lock your vehicle doors.**
🔫 **Secure your valuables — especially fi****ms.**
🔑 **REMOVE YOUR KEYS!**
So far in 2026, 436 fi****ms have been stolen from vehicles in Nashville, including 17 fi****ms taken from vehicles just last week.
Of the 641 fi****ms stolen in Davidson County this year, approximately 68% were taken from automobiles.
While that number is down from this time last year — when 655 fi****ms had been stolen from vehicles— there is still work to do.
🚗 **Stolen vehicles are also routinely used in other crimes**, including carjackings and robberies.
Help us keep our community safer. Taking a few extra seconds to lock your vehicle, remove your keys, and never leave a firearm or other valuables unsecured can make a significant difference. 💙🍩💙
**Lock it. Secure it. Remove the keys. Every time.** 🔒🔑
