OPERATION QUARTERLIGHT Operation Quarterlight is being implemented throughout Scotland to identify and target those responsible for vehicle break-ins and thefts. Each week, across Scotland, since November 2014 more than 70 vehicles have been stolen. In addition, each week, more than 230 vehicles have either been broken into or had items stolen from them having been left insecure. Assistant Chief Constable Campbell Thomson said: “Local Policing is at the heart of all we do, and officers right across Scotland will be targeting criminals who commit car crime. “Operation Quarterlight is about preventing vehicle crime, and targeting those responsible. I would say this directly to those intent on committing vehicle crime in Scotland – if you engage in such activity, we will use every resource at our disposal to trace you, arrest you and bring you to justice.” Please remember: - Don’t make your car a target for crime; remove all your valuables and don’t leave them in sight - Always secure your vehicle, never leave it unattended or with the keys still in the ignition. - Don’t leave your keys anywhere they can be easily stolen – leaving them by a house door or hallway is a gift to criminals.
