Criminals are getting increasingly brazen…

Car thieves in Westchester, Florida used a Mercedes-AMG GT 4-door to bust through the owner’s motorized driveway gate in a brazen getaway. The whole thing was caught on the owner’s surveillance camera and shared on a local newscast, which accompanies this article. Once again, we’re getting a potent example of how brazen car thieves have become as these type of incidents become increasingly common across the United States and elsewhere.

These crooks seem to have a thing for Mercedes, because they arrived in a GLA, which was quite likely stolen. After backing up to the gate, one thief jumped over the fence and was easily able to get inside the vehicle since the owner left the keys inside. We’ve seen quite a few cars with keyless entry/ignition stolen because the keys were kept in the cupholder overnight. This car owner told a local reporter he didn’t think anyone would be so bold as to try taking any of his vehicles while his family slept inside the house.
