Unhappy golf car theft

I also live in Pooh's neighborhood and got the email message about the theft of one of our neighbor's golf cart. It happened between 5:30 and 7:30 and seemed to definitely be a crime of opportunity. It seems scarey that someone was walking or looking for this opportunity so early in the morning; the street that it happened on is one street over from ours and is a cul-de-sac street...a little out of the way for walkers. The person who emailed us warned everyone to be alert, to be sure to close garage doors, take out keys, and also to use the shut off switch on the wall inside the garage for extra security at night . By turning off this switch, you can prevent anyone from opening your door with a remote. I always close the garage door now, after I had my clubs stolen from the Mallory parking lot. I lock them on my cart or park in the back of country clubs now when we stop for lunch after golf . I saw that two sets of clubs were reported stolen in today's paper.
