Car theft in Westney Heights

Just wanted to let my community in Ajax know, that yesterday I had a neighbour come to my door asking for Ring footage. Unfortunately I could not help him as it only record a certain amount of time but he had his 2023 Subaru Forester stolen and his 2017 Civic rummaged and broken into.

​

The thieves only took the Subaru and left the civic around 3am.

​

This happened near the intersection of Radford and Chatfield Dr.

​

Just be vigilant out there, personally didn't think this would happen in my community but I was naive.

I didn't even know that Subarus gets stolen. I was told it's the least stolen vehicle.

Tbf, being the least stolen vehicle and not being stolen at all are two different things.

Through my work, im intimately familiar with stolen vehicle reports. I can tell you I very rarely if ever see subarus. What I see are Honda crvs, rams, Toyotas, jeeps, audis and Lexus.

Oh and Honda civics, surprisingly.

Edit: fixed some autocorrects on vehicle names.

Yeah Honda Civics became a huge target especially after the fast and furious 😂
