<Car Theft Hits Record High In Los Angeles
8/1/20
<A new report via Crosstown LA, who examined the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) data, reveals that 5,744 vehicle thefts occurred between April and June, up 57.7% from the same period last year.
As thousands of businesses closed in the southern California city, the unemployment rate skyrocketed past 13.2%, recorded in 2010, to 19.5%, as the virus-induced recession permanently closed businesses and severely pressure household finances.
A tick up in crime is common during deep economic downturns. Months of lockdowns made vehicles susceptible to break-ins.
Crosstown also said the California Judicial Council's passing of a new zero-dollar bail policy was another contributing factor to the surge in thefts, which meant most non-violent crimes had no bail requirements as a way to mitigate the spread of the virus in jails.
"People are seeing that they're not going to stay in jail, especially for car theft," said LAPD Lieutenant Siage Hosea, who works on the Task Force for Regional Auto theft Protection.
"So what's happening is we are seeing repeat offenders.">
