Tires and rims being stolen off of Honda vehicles

Just an FYI to all our neighbors. I received this from Kristi Jensen, one of the Mobile Watch Coordinators.
Hey fellow Provo-ites... just came back from a meeting with Provo PD and they want to get the word out that there is a BIG problem right now with tires and rims getting stolen off of Honda vehicles.  The vehicles are left sitting on blocks. The times and dates are random with no particular pattern noted. Pass the word along.  If you have info please call Provo PD (801) 852-6211.
