Police are warning holiday shoppers to not shop & drop your items and valuables in the seats of your car. Instead, they are encouraging us to secure things we want to keep in the trunk -- more secure and out of sight.

Police say predatory criminals are watching; and can break into your car and flee in less than sixty seconds. As a point of reference, Minneapolis Police say car theft and theft from vehicles are up 30% this holiday season.

Don't encourage the idiots out there to break in by showing them what you've got. My brother-in-law had his car broken into because he left his iPhone 6 on the console in his car. Take it or trunk it.

And, Merry Christmas. Ho, ho, ho.
