The increasing cases of breaking into parked vehicles at some Gaborone shopping malls worry the police. Criminals who normally wonder around parking lots at River Walk, Kagiso, Game City, African and Main Malls break into parked motor vehicles and get away with valuables.
These criminals, who operate in syndicates, monitor the movements of vehicle owners before breaking into their vehicles and target valuables such as money, lap tops, cell phones, car radios, bags and others. Motorists are therefore, advised to always keep an eye on their vehicles, while parked and should also avoid leaving valuables in their vehicles.
