Keyless vehicle owners warn of thefts

POLICE are urging drivers who use cars with keyless entry to keep their keys in a special ‘Faraday’ bag after two Range Rovers were stolen on 17 April.

The thefts were achieved by someone near the vehicles using a device to capture the signal used by the key card or fob. These ‘relay thefts’ are preventable by using a special carrier with a metal lining – a Faraday bag.

Wiltshire Police were able to trace and return the vehicles to their owners with the aid of colleagues from Hampshire.
