HADDONFIELD, N.J. - Police in New Jersey recently stopped two stolen cars from being shipped overseas after they were boosted in Camden County and driven to a busy port in the northern part of the state.
Authorities in Haddonfield on Thursday said car thieves can tell if some vehicles are unlocked by noticing if its sideview mirrors are not "retracted in." Once inside an unlocked vehicle, police say the car thief will hit the push-to-start button to see if the key fob is somewhere inside the car.MORE LOCAL HEADLINESIn the recent string of thefts, investigators said the stolen cars were driven up the New Jersey Turnpike to the Port of Newark-Elizabeth.
