Just guessing, Slim, but did you have a Honda stolen from you in Centralia?
Anyone living in this day and age should know better than to leave their vehicles unlocked with valuables left inside. Leaving valuables in a locked car is equally stupid. I feel sorry for our law enforcement having to deal with totally stupid human beings. Enough said Peabody?
Another Stolen Honda and no plans to operate a bait car to counter act the theft problem. If you have been a victim of a vehicle theft I urge you to call city hall and ask them what they are doing to deture vehicle thefts in our community. Someone needs to get a handle on this known reoccurring crime issue that could be minimized with a bait car deployed in high Honda theft areas. Vote these clowns out of office if their not going to represent your needs with tax money their payed to fight crime with. I’m going to keep making the bait car suggestion until it makes its way to the city manager Rob Hill. Just like the pool you can expect you’re city officials to steer our city down a dead end of fixable problems. CPD get s bait car out there start fighting crime with technology. Enough said until the next Hondas stolen from a hard working citizen that’s being screwed over by Tax Feeders who just drive through town to pick up their pay check and deficate in out city while pretending to manage out city.
